Scientific paper

A historic progress on recent studies of whether there is a possible age-metallicity relation of stars in the Galactic disk, especially in the Galactic thick disk, is reviewed in some details. It is shown from investigations given by different authors during last more than 20 years that there are some conflicting conclusions on the age-metallicity relation of stars in the Galactic disk. Still, there is a possible age-metallicity relation for stars in the Galactic thick disk. It is pointed out that the key to accurate determination of the age-metallicity relation of stars is how to obtain reasonable, big enough samples of the stars on the basis of more observational data available.
