The Drake Equation (Encore)

In 1961, at the Green Bank observatory in West Virginia, a small conference was held for astrophysicists. The meeting was organized by Cornell University professor and astronomer Frank Drake.

The subject of the conference was the search for extraterrestrial life.

In preparation for the conference, he jotted down his thoughts in the form of an equation. An equation that has changed how we think about life on other worlds.

Learn more about the Drake Equation and the variables that make it up on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
