Scientists estimate the number of planets copies of Earth

Ученые подсчитали число планет-копий ЗемлиScientists were able to calculate the number of planets that are incredibly similar to Earth.

Physics of the Korea Institute for policy studies (Seoul, Republic of Korea) said the number of Earth-like exoplanets in the milky Way.

If neglected often exaggerating the danger to the life of supernova explosions, it appears that the habitability of galaxies must be higher than previous estimates. To date, only the milky Way existed or continues to exist about 1.4 billion Earth-like exoplanets.

The habitability of galaxies, as shown by the authors, over the last eight billion years not had to change, and most Earth-like exoplanets has been developed over the last six billion years (over 1.5 billion years before the origin of the Solar system).

Physicists obtained estimates suggest that about 0.7% of stars of galaxies of milky Way type is in the habitable zone exoplanets are earth-like (it follows from the Kepler mission). In their work, the scientists combined data models the evolution of galaxies with known restrictions on the distribution of potentially habitable planets (i.e. Earth-like celestial bodies, where there might be liquid water).
