\section*{Estimating the terms in the Drake equation}
$R$ is $R$, the \textbf{rate of star formation},
telling tells how many stars are born every year in our Galaxy. This number is about 10 and might seem quite small, but the Galaxy is about 10 billion years old, so plenty of stars have born (and died) in the
meanwhile.\\ meanwhile. So $R\approx
10$
The other terms 10$. It's interesting to note that in
the 1961, when Drake
equation were not known in 1961. Actually till wrote his equation, this was the
early '90s only factor known. Today we
didn't even know
if planets were a unique feature of the Solar system. much more.
