la tierra es incredible

Lately I have started signing off my official emails with the green message "Good planets are hard to find"..

Today I stumbled upon the exact reason why!
The net probability of another Earth (or a 'good' planet) forming again is: 1:10⁹⁹ !!
(See the first link at the end of this post for substantiation)

The 'impossibly large' moon, the circular orbit of earth, the safe location of our solar system in the turbulent galaxy, a miraculous head-on collision by a small planet that formed the moon and our thin atmosphere... the coincidences are endless!

Here's a quote from Dr. Nick Hoffman of La Trobe University, Melbourne Australia:

"Around countless stars in our galaxy, and innumerable galaxies through space there will surely be Terrestrial planets, yet they will not be Earth-like. They will not have glistening Silver Moons orbiting silently through space around them, but only small dull rocks whizzing in orbit. The worlds will be, almost without exception, waterworlds."



Here are the links that'll guarantee a spaced-out look at the end!
