Last night I did the Drake Equation with a few modern updates (G- and K-type stars, no binaries allowed) and I allowed that an intelligent/aware species would develop technology (or vice versa!)
I came up with a range of N=1 to N=30. I kept having trouble with the chance of 'right' planets actually developing life. 0.00001 or 0.000001 chance (10^-5 or 10^-6)?
@Ryagful Perhaps :) The point is that we won't have an idea of the values to assign Drake's equation until we actually discover some intelligent civilizations :)
Earth-size and in the so-called 'habitable zone' planets are f-sub-p and n-sub-e and were well-guessed at anyway before the Kepler probe.
Like I said, I await the discovery of an exo-planet with a spectrum showing a strongly oxidizing atmosphere like ours.
The latest Grand Tack model shows that in order to have an Earth you need a Jupiter and Saturn as well. I await too the discovery of a solar system like ours.
why does he say 10 planets?

@3000cecil Apologies if my comment seemed rude. It as not intended that way.
