We are not talking about "a" planet. We are talking about Earth and all its complexities, including man.A new study by Astrophysicist Erik Zackrisson from Uppsala University in Sweden suggests that there are around 700 quintillion planets in the universe, but only one like Earth. 700 quintillion is a 7 followed by 20 zeros. That's not quite as big as but its good enough. I do not have the reference that Dr Borel used.Scott and Janice Huse, in their 1997 book The Collapse of Evolution, state that “It is very significant to note that mathematicians generally consider that any event with a probability of one chance [in] 10^50 as having a zero probability (i.e. it is impossible).”The astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle illustrated this with his Junkyard Tornado Theory: “The chance that higher life forms might have emerged in this way is comparable to the chance that a tornado sweeping through a junkyard might assemble a Boeing 747 from the materials therein.”
