:question: What is the Drake equation? :question:

The Drake equation is a mathematical formula used to estimate the number of detectable extraterrestrial civilizations in our galaxy.

The equation was first proposed by astrophysicist Frank Drake in 1961 as a way to organize the various factors that could influence the likelihood of the existence of extraterrestrial life.



:telescope: The Drake equation formula :telescope:

N = R ⋅ fp ⋅ ne ⋅ fl ⋅ fi ⋅ fc ⋅ L



:book: The Drake equation formula explained :book:

N = the number of civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy with which communication might be possible

R = the average rate of star formation in our Galaxy

fp = the fraction of those stars that have planets

ne = the number of planets per star that are in the "habitable zone" (where conditions are right for liquid water to exist)

fl = the fraction of those planets on which life develops

fi = the fraction of those planets on which intelligent life develops

fc = the fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space

L = the length of time for which such civilizations release detectable signals into space
