Scientists at the University of Rochester in New York revised the famous drake equation and say intelligent alien civilizations exited before us.
Recent advances in exoplanet studies provide strong constraints on all astrophysical terms in the Drake equation.
Using these and modifying the form and intent of the Drake equation have set a firm lower bound on the probability that one or more technological species have evolved anywhere and at any time in the history of the observable Universe.
The new equation which includes recent data from NASA’s Kepler satellite on the numbers of exoplanets that could harbor life indicates that humanity is not the only time technological intelligence has evolved.
