Are some of these scientists insecure or something? I mean, we're getting "scientist" probably in their 20s declaring things and they really haven't had much experience in life. Everyday we get proclamations some which conflict with another group's proclamations the week before. Some are just really, really lame. I would give them a D if I were their professor. I'm intrigued to know what "experience in life" you could have that would make you more likely to know how much matter there is in distant galaxies. Surely it's a matter of measuring gravitational rotation and studying spectroheliographs of emitted light? Logically the way we see things in nature work of course it is entirely possible there are earth like planets throughout the universe. But why make the stupid statement that this planet is among the first. More likely many, many "Earths" have come and gone. That is a more logical assumption. It's a matter of atomic complexity. The first generation of atoms were 75% hydrogen, it was the supernovae of the first stars that created the next level of complexity by fusing atomic nuclei together to make heavier elements. It takes four generations of stars forming and collapsing to create carbon: FORMATION OF THE HIGHER MASS ELEMENTS http://aether.lbl.gov/www/tour/elements/stellar/stellar_a.html http://aether.lbl.gov/www/tour/elements/stellar/stellar_a.html FORMATION OF THE HIGHER MASS ELEMENTS http://aether.lbl.gov/www/tour/elements/stellar/stellar_a.html Formation of the High Mass Elements (What Happens Inside a Star) ABSTRACT Once the universe was created by the Big Bang, the only abundant elements prese...

But Carl Sagan supposedly stated that the golden records on the Voyager probe may be found by another intelligent species which have not yet existed today. Or, that the records would eventually wither away in outer space without being discovered by any intelligent beings. Our Planet Is Among the First of Many, Many Earths Our Planet Is Among the First of Many, Many Earths A new study finds the universe is chock-full of materials for making Earth-like planets, but most of them haven't formed yet.
