The Drake equation is a probabilistic equation used to estimate the number of detectable extraterrestrial civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy. It was developed by astrophysicist Frank Drake in the 1960s as a way to stimulate scientific thinking about the likelihood of extraterrestrial life and to encourage communication with extraterrestrial civilizations. The equation is as follows: N = R* x fp x ne x fl x fi x fc x L Where: N = the number of detectable extraterrestrial civilizations in our galaxy R* = the average rate of star formation in our galaxy fp = the fraction of those stars that have planets ne = the number of planets per star that are habitable fl = the fraction of planets that could support life fi = the fraction of those planets where life actually develops fc = the fraction of civilizations that develop a detectable means of communication L = the length of time such civilizations are detectable

So, CBL in general are amazing, but this song stands out. It is amazing how they manage to give electronic music such an organic feel.

Wake up N equals r, f-p Wake up F, l, wake up N equals r, f-p, n-e, f-l, f-i, f-c, l, wake up N equals r, f-p, n-e, f-l, f-i, f-c, l, wake up N equals R F-p, n-e, f-l, f-i, n-c, l N = R* fp * ne * fl * fi * fc * L where: N = the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible; and R* = the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy fp = the fraction of those stars that have planets ne = the average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets fℓ = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life at some point fi = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life ---- Such a masterpiece...
