I think it would be fascinating to discover that God made one planet with sentient beings and life per galaxy. It gives each one a big back yard without ever coming in contact with another one.
I forget where I watched it. The only place that I can find now is VUDU. Each season costs $18.00. If you are still thinking about it, there are some snippets on Youtube.com.
Thanks.
Friends, Cheers, How i met your father.... etc
There was a video going around awhile back that delved into the circumstances needed to make life on Earth possible as we know it.
The is no evidence to prove that we are not alone.
I prefer to ask, ‘What went bang?’
I’d say so. I like the quantum view of a multiverse in differing dimensions but I loved Chronicles of Narnia too much when a child and later in college never got far in physics and math but enough to see on conceptual level there’s much more here but we can’t see too well living in three dimensions + partial time
The one money comment in the whole article:
“However, it’s important not to assume that what we can currently detect is all that the Milky Way has to offer. If there’s anything out there like our own Solar System, it’s very possibly beyond our detection capabilities.”
Beyond our CURRENT detection capabilities. Whether there are or are not solar systems similar to ours is not known right now. Humanity will have to wait until our explorations of the universe are much greater than there are now.
Recommend watching The Priviledge Planet DVD. Various Astronomers talk about the uniqueness of our sun, planet, solar system, position in our galaxy, our moon, our orbit, our tilt, our molten iron core and magnetic field and on and on.
Very revealing, you cant come away thinking it was not designed to be a place for us.
“you cant come away thinking it was not designed to be a place for us.”
Agreed—but the explanation may be one that is outside the comfort zone of a lot of folks around here.
Hint: Fishtanks were made for fish.
Are you one of those who think we were created and ‘planted’ here by a superior extraterrestrial race?
How would/does planet alignment affect the barycenter? Seems it would throw everything out of wack like clay on a pottery wheel that gets out of balance and goes flying.
I go with “Schrödinger’s E.T.” theory. We are both alone and in a galactic metropolis at the same time.

Model it mathematically and physical to and find out
There isn't going to be an Earth equivalent, a waterworld that goes snowball and back again over and over but that does not preclude a multitude of 'rocky' ur-Earths where the carbon-based bipedal humanoid refinement took a similar path, but maybe a bit longer.
That latter point is a concern -- did that rocky ur-Earth 'refinement' take up the entirety of the 5B (earth) year gap available to competing carbon-based systems (we are a bit late on the scene regarding our emergence as sentient in relation to the age of the Universe crossed against M-class star systams), which means we have all come 'of age' at the same time and have not thusly conquered interstellar space yet? That would be a miserable but not non-zero possibility...
What if we are the first?
