At this rate, with the ratio of large planets to small... if we do find intelligent life, they'll be large high-gravity folks.

I'll feel much more comfortable with my place in the universe when our equipment gets better at picking out smaller planets.

I was reading another story that said these wouldn’t have been found around a larger brighter star. On the other hand, red dwarves are extremely long lasting stars (possibly as much as a trillion year life span) and might be a more likely place to find life. Red dwarves are also the most common type of star.

Or it could be we are finding more large planets, because, oh, I dunno, THEY ARE BIGGER?
