Ther percentage of ${ }^{235} U$ presently on earth is $0.72$ and the rest $(99.28 \%)$ may be taken to be ${ }^{233} U$. Assume that all uranium on earth was produced in a supernova explosion long ago with the initial ratio ${ }^{235} U /^{335} U =2.0$. How long ago did the supernova event occur? (Take the half-lives of ${ }^{235} U$ and ${ }^{238} U$ to be $7.1 \times 10^5$ years and $4.5 \times 10^{9}$ years respectively)
