So the product of the first 3 terms is now well established and is, using a conservative approximation, of order 1.  $N =\overbrace{R}^{\sim10} \times \overbrace{f_p}^{\sim 1} \times \overbrace{n_e}^{\sim 0.2} \times \underbrace{f_l \times f_i \times f_c \times L}_{?}$  So the product of the first 3 terms is now well established and is, using a conservative approximation, of order 1. So we We  can then  simplify the Drake equation and re-write it as: $N \approx f_l \times f_i \times f_c \times L$
