[Even under the most generous (and wildly unrealistic) scenario of every star having an Earthlike planet circling it, this means that the inhabitable fraction of the Universe is 2E10 mi^3 * 7E22 / 1E33 ly^3 / 2E38 mi^3/ly^3 = 7x10-39, or 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000007%. And if the Earth happens to be the only inhabitable planet after all, add twenty-two more zeros to that figure.]

And yet the probability of life appearing on Earth in very short order after the initial "global warming" is 1. Very curious.

Yes, it's curious that you would make such a questionable claim without offering a shred of support for it.

LOL, life exists on Earth, that makes p=1. Life appeared on Earth in short order when Earth cooled. Now what exactly is questionable there Mr Science?
