The Anthropic Cosmological Principles(Fine tuning for life) Grand design.

It is not just the universe that bears evidence for design. The earth itself reveals such evidence. Frank Drake, Carl Sagan, and Iosef Shklovsky were among the first astronomers to concede this point when they attempted to estimate the number planets in the universe with environments favorable for the support of life. In the early 1960's they recognized that only a certain kind of star with a planet just the right distance from that star would provide the necessary conditions for life.12On this basis they made some rather optimistic estimates for the probability of finding life elsewhere in the universe. Shklovsky and Sagan, for example, claimed that 0.001 percent of all stars could have a planet upon which advanced life resides.13

While their analysis was a step in the right direction, it overestimated the range of permissible star types and the range of permissible planetary distances. It also ignored many other significant factors. A sample of parameters sensitive for the support of life on a planet are listed in Table 1.

Table 1: Evidence for the design of the sun-earth-moon system14 - 31

The following parameters cannot exceed certain limits without disturbing the earth's capacity to support life. Some of these parameters are more narrowly confining than others. For example, the first parameter would eliminate only half the stars from candidacy for life-supporting Systems, whereas parameters five, seven, and eight would each eliminate more than ninety-nine in a hundred star-planet systems. Not only must the parameters for life support fall within a certain restrictive range, but they must remain relatively constant over time. And we know that several, such as parameters fourteen through nineteen, are subject to potentially catastrophic fluctuation. In addition to the parameters listed here, there are others, such as the eccentricity of a planet's orbit, that have an upper (or a lower) limit only.1. number of star companions
* if more than one: tidal interactions would disrupt planetary orbits
* if less than one: not enough heat produced for life
2. parent star birth date
* if more recent: star would not yet have reached stable burning phase
* if less recent: stellar system would not yet contain enough heavy elements
3. parent star age
if older: luminosity of star would not he sufficiently stable
* if younger: luminosity of star would not be sufficiently stable
4. parent star distance from center of galaxy
* if greater: not enough heavy elements to make rocky planets
* if less: stellar density and radiation would he too great
5. parent star mass
* if greater: luminosity output from the star would not besufficiently stable
* if less: range of distances appropriate for life would be too narrow; tidal forces would disrupt the rotational period for a planet of the right distance
6. parent star color
* if redder: insufficient photosynthetic response
* if bluer: insufficient photosynthetic response
7. surface gravity* if stronger: planet's atmosphere would retain huge amounts of ammonia and methane* if weaker: planet's atmosphere would lose too much water8. distance from parent star* if farther away: too cool for a stable water cycle* if closer: too warm for a stable water cycle
9. thickness of crust
* if thicker: too much oxygen would he transferred from the atmosphere to the crust * if thinner: volcanic and tectonic activity would be too great10. rotationperiod
* if longer: diurnal temperature differences would he too great
* if shorter: atmospheric wind velocities would he too great11. gravitational interaction with a moon * if greater: tidal effects on the oceans, atmosphere, and rotational period would he too severe * if less: earth's orbital obliquity would change too much causing climatic instabilities12. magnetic field
* if stronger: electromagnetic storms would be too severe
* if weaker: no protection from solar wind particles13. axial tilt
* if greater: surface temperature differences would be too great
* if less: surface temperature differences would he too great
14. albedo (ratio of reflected light to total amount falling on surface)
* if greater: runaway ice age would develop
* if less: runaway greenhouse effect would develop15. oxygen to nitrogen ratio in atmosphere* if larger: life functions would proceed too quickly
* if smaller: life functions would proceed too slowly
16. carbon dioxide and water vapor levels in atmosphere
* if greater: runaway greenhouse effect would develop
* if less: insufficient greenhouse effect
17. ozone level in atmosphere* if greater: surface temperatures would become too low* if less: surface temperatures would he too high; too much uv radiation at surffes18. atmospheric electric discharge rate
* if greater: too much fire destruction
* if less: too little nitrogen fixing in the soil
19. seismic activity * if greater: destruction of too many life-forms
* if less: nutrients on ocean floors would not be uplifted

you christian fanatics are so full of shit, that it's stops being funny, shielding yourselves behind the anthropic principle you come up with this bullshit, perhaps you should say on the video that this principle also applies to the notion of god, in which case, were we humans not here in this universe nor would god

[jesusLostChildren777]

@ursodus actually it do not apply to God he exist outside this universe.noting create noting so there must be something eternal,the universe has a beginning, there for it cant be the first cause of our universe.the first cause must be the eternal and timeless because it created time.the only thing that is logical is Lord God that existed outside our known universe.Lord God is space-less,timeless,and without matter.He created this universe

[ursodus]

@jesusLostChildren777 your reasoning is flawed, if what you say were true, than who or what created god? the very meaning of the power of a god would mean that god would be everything, in other words a god would not create thing for amusement god would literally be everything and literally be every point in the universe, god would be the very medium in space time needed for him to be there, etc, god cannot exist outside the universe as you say, if that were true then he is not god

[jesusLostChildren777]

@ursodus you make a wrong assumption that God can be created.i already say to you that there must be something eternal that made everting.the bible makes it clear that God is eternal it is never been created because he is not affected by time,he created time.the known universe exist out of time,space and matter.because the universe have a beginning that means there was no time before it created time

[ursodus]

@jesusLostChildren777 What your saying is literally coming out of your ass; If you say god is eternal and not part of the universe, then you are saying that is is not made of matter or any elements, your saying he cannot be made of energy or anything, in other words you're saying that god is nothing because he is outside everything; if god was the eternal all powerful thing that you say he is, then he would not have had the need to make a universe in the first place, was he bored? so he made it?

[jesusLostChildren777]

@ursodus maybe if you read better then i dont have to repeat my self.again Lord God is a spirit.he is eternal and must be eternal,because there was no time before time when time was created.it must be eternal because noting created noting.just logic,also God created life because for his glory and probably out of Love. Psalm 19.1 The heavens declare the glory of God;the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

great vid. Thanx.

There is a possibility there are planets like ours..
