Question

HOWDY FOLKS'


That Above is Sir Frank Drake' Equation.
Just Tell Me WHY if Any of those Values is Zero than There Is no Extra Terrestrial Life form in the Whole God.da.mn Universe ?



PEACE

Answer 1

Hey Mate..!!

Here's Your Answer..!!

If any of the values mentioned in Sir Frank Drake's equation is 0 then there is no Extra Terrestrial Life form in the Whole Universe.

For understanding this, refer to the attachment so that you can what all these values stand for.

You will see that-
N = The number of civilization in our galaxy with which communication is possible

✨R = the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy
✨fp = the fraction of those stars with planet
✨Ne = The average no. of those planets that may develop ecosystem
✨fl = The fraction of those planets which succeed in developing life
✨fi = Fraction of planets that can develop intelligent life
✨fc = Fraction of those planets that develop intelligent life and develop interstellar communication
✨L = The average length of time such civilization survives and is able to send communications.

We may say that the value of L is 0.
Then, will there be no other life form in the whole universe?
Well, there obviously won't be any other life form in the whole Universe as, the length of time the Extra Terrestrial Life will be able to survive = Zero. So, if there will be any other life form developed, they won't be able to live more than 0 seconds or whatever. Hence, leaving us (Humans) all alone.

Now, we may consider the value of fl to be 0.
If the value of fl will be = 0, then too, there would be no other life present in the whole Universe. This is because, no planet will be able to develop life. And if no life development will start then obviously it is understood that we'll be all alone.

Let's consider fi now-
We can’t reliably estimate how many planets give rise to intelligent life.
Without finding many planets/moons with Life first, this estimate is meaningless.

All these values are connected in such a way that if even a single value is 0 then there will be no other life form in the Universe.

Unless we know the real values for the Drake equation, arguing further based on assumptions and analogies doesn’t make much sense. We need to have a lot of scientific
knowledge before we can truly grasp the real extent of the Drake equation.

There has been a successful realistic estimation of the rate of star formation (R*) and the fraction of stars with planets f(p).
Now, there has to be a determination of The number of habitable planets n(e). 

(had to write so much..xD)

Hope This Helps..!!
