\section{Counting Civilizations}
In order to estimate the number of technological civilizations that might exist among the stars, in 1961 Frank Drake proposed the following simple equation
$N = R \times f_p \times n_e \times f_l \times f_i \times f_c \times L$
where $N$ is the number of civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy with whom we could make contact.
$f$ are all factors $\le 1$
