This tool allows you to explore the Drake Equation, a probabilistic framework used to estimate the number of active, communicative extraterrestrial civilizations in the Milky Way.

#DrakeEquation

Are you alone is (usually) a relatively easy question to answer...

But are WE (e.g., life on Earth) alone (in the Universe) is a bit more complex...

Enter the Drake Equation for some of your important are we alone pondering...

Free audiobook of my previous poetry pamphlet "For the hypothetical aliens" which is an exploration of our place in the universe and our relationships both with one another and nature, explored through the twin lenses of cosmology and Sci-Fi...

80 years ago a wrong decision was made that began a new era of high technology death and suffering that will eventually kill all of us.

I'm thinking we're unlikely to make to a century.

It's that darn #DrakeEquation "L"

Hey. OK.

Nice while it lasted.

Maybe some extraterrestrials will get a chuckle watching Comedy Central or The Late Show.

Makes the entirety of human existence worthwhile, somehow.

I wrote a book.

It is called "For the hypothetical aliens" and it is about our place in the universe, how we relate to nature, and what that means for us, individually.

It takes a stance somewhat centred on the dissonance between a SciFi way of looking at things vs. "realism".

It's about 40 pages of actual poetry plus the contents page, acknowledgements etc and (warning) it does contain one five page poem purporting to be about a mathematical equation...

The usual price is £5 but I am discounting them to £4 at the moment. Shipping in the UK is £1.80.

If you live elsewhere in the world we'll have to strategize because there have been problems sending pamphlets/magazines from the UK since Brexit 😢.

If you want to order one, or invite me to read from it at your poetry evening, please PM me.

Laat het aan Maarten Schinkel en Marieke Stellinga over om de #DrakeEquation te gebruiken voor het bespreken van de positieve kant van de #Economie van #Liefde. #Valentijnsdag
