Re: OT: Kepler's Tally of Planets

I sincerely hope not - not only are the basic assumptions of the Drake Equation somewhat dodgy, the number of variables already make it effectively meaningless *even if you agree with the foundations*. :-( Ian On 19 Apr 2013, at 21:54, Peter Haworth wrote: > Look forward to seeing it. I was j

Re: OT: Kepler's Tally of Planets

Peter et al, I was busy the last 2 days, but just sat down to create a Drake Equation stack and came up with this in 35 minutes: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iukm6lgdz8762r8/DrakeEquation.livecode Now to embellish it. Perhaps you folks have

Re: OT: Kepler's Tally of Planets

Look forward to seeing it. I was just reading on Wikipedia that there are proposals to add more variables to the equation. Pete lcSQL Software On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 1:28 PM, Roger Guay wrote: > Should be easy to do. I'll have a go at it if not already done. > > Roger

Should be easy to do. I'll have a go at it if not already done. Roger On Apr 19, 2013, at 12:09 PM, Peter Haworth wrote: > Anyone have a stack for the Drake equation? > > Pete > lcSQL Software > > > On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 10:59 AM, Roger Guay wrote: > >> Thanks fo

Anyone have a stack for the Drake equation? Pete lcSQL Software On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 10:59 AM, Roger Guay wrote: > Thanks for this, Mark. It is indeed beautiful and informative! As you may > know, SETI is focusing their attention on Kepler planets. > > > Roger > > > O

Re: OT: Kepler's Tally of Planets

Thanks for this, Mark. It is indeed beautiful and informative! As you may know, SETI is focusing their attention on Kepler planets. Roger On Apr 19, 2013, at 10:33 AM, Mark Wieder wrote: > Friday goodness: > > Three new planets could host life, scientists announced. “With all of these > dis

OT: Kepler's Tally of Planets

Friday goodness: Three new planets could host life, scientists announced. “With all of these discoveries we’re finding, Earth is looking less and less like a special place,” one said. The New York Times has a beautiful interactive graphic of all the new planets.
