There are potentially over 8 billion planets capable of life
There is potentially over 8 [b]billion[/b] planets capable of life in [b][i]our galaxy.[/i][/b]
[quote] By extrapolating Kepler’s findings, astronomers have come up with some not-altogether-unfounded estimates for these values. For instance, they concluded that about 22% of Sun-like stars has at least one planet we class as potentially habitable. Doing the math based on the latest estimates for the total number of stars in the Milky Way, that gives us a rough figure of 8.8 billion potentially habitable planets in the Milky Way. That’s a lot of rolls of the dice, assuming you believe life has any chance at all of starting spontaneously. [/quote]
That's just our galaxy people. There's hundreds of billions of galaxies in our universe. That's a lot of potential for life. We're not special snowflakes.

3 RepliesEdited by Sandtrap: 6/1/2015 1:19:10 AMI'd refute you on the snowflakes part. How rather standard and characteristic to place life into a box and proclaim it has less meaning and value just because of a sum of numbers. Much like how people would view an ant colony. Their numbers so vast, that step on one? No. It won't make an impact. Surely not.
