It seems we are not alone, almost one in four stars in the universe could have planets capable of supporting life just like the Earth, according to a new study. http://www.indiareport.com/India-usa-uk-news/latest-news/926467/FeaturedArticles...-

Good post. I think 1 in 4 is too high. Double stars are more numerous than single stars (if what I heard last is still true). A second star in a system would interfere with the aggregation of matter and cause the formation of asteroid belts instead of planets, by my calculations.
I think we're going to be a little disappointed to find the number of habitable planets are too far apart. We will never roam the galaxy with the Vulcans and Kling-ons.
