Funny thing is, when you put the smallest things in the universe on a scale to the biggest things in the universe, humans are pretty much right in the middle of the scale.

Does it? Does the size of stars indicate age? Does the size of the universe indicate age?
But then again, I think that time included god creating the heavens. So, perhaps he put an awful lot of attention to detail in the earth itself.
