I once did a survey of 10000 real and procedurally-generated systems in SE, and 6.27% of them had some form of life. Just in case anyone wants to know.

[@joshbray4570]

Of course it is just a simulation but since it does very accurately simulate the Universe, that statistic could be very realistic. Of course finding life like us may be very rare, maybe even non-existent within a 1000 light years. Even in the entire galaxy, we may only find a very small amount of intelligent beings like us if any.

[@davidk1308]

Chris Gaming Really? That's pretty high, I wonder what it's like in real life.

[@chrisgaming9567]

If I had to guess I'd say it's similar to the SE percentage, since SE uses as much real-world information as possible when generating these things.

[@cryoraptora303tm2]

This is probably an accurate statistic for _habitable_ planets, although nobody really knows how common life itself is. Life could be extremely common, being in most stellar systems with a habitable planet, somewhat common, with maybe half of habitable planets hosting life, uncommon with maybe 10% of habitable planets hosting life, rare with 1% of habitable planets hosting life, extremely rare with maybe 0.000001% or a few habitable planets per galaxy hosting life or life could end up being 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% impossible and we are freak accidents. There is no way to know which one is more likely as we do not know the process of chemicals becoming a life form very well at all. I'd estimate life to be at least uncommon (10% of habitable planets hosting life) considering how many apparently habitable planets we have found but it's only an estimation or educated guess at best.

[@derbigpr500]

The vast majority of life in SE are uncellular life, mostly marine. It's very rare to find multicellular life, and even more rare to find exotic forms of life.

Interesting...

[@cryoraptora303tm2]

The closest inorganic life to us could actually be in our own solar system. It has been hypothesized that it could be possible that Titan hosts a type of life form that inhales hydrogen, metabolizes it with acetylene and exhales methane. Although there is no direct evidence that this life exists on Titan, a lot of prebiotic compounds and compounds thought to play an important role in the formation of life have been detected there, so it is one of the most likely candidates for life on other worlds. The most likely currently is Europa, which could host life in it's suspected liquid water mantle. Since liquid water is there it would be organic and similar to marine unicellular life on Earth. We don't know what is under the ice sheet of Europa yet, so it's unknown whether the compounds necessary for life to form exist there. The liquid mantle has a chance of not even existing, although we are pretty sure it's there. Any life that is there will most likely be unicellular, the same goes for Titan. Other moons that are thought to have liquid mantles are also suspected to be capable of supporting life, so they are all candidates. Whether any do though is another matter altogether.

Ever get the feeling that the universe is like a never ending matryoshka doll? Like the ENTIRE visible universe is just one particle inside a larger galaxy and so on.

[@djdrack4681]

It is literally the accepted theory: Observable Universe vs. (larger) Unobservable Universe. Its estimated now (2022) that based on CMB, redshifting observed, etc: that the universe is something like 13.x billion years old and at LEAST 90billion light years wide. IF the universe were exceptionally finite (with some sort of 'hard' border between reality/nothingness) then it means on the end the amount of stuff in unobservable universe is at min a 100-300 times the mass of the observable. It would just grow scalar amount based on how much wider it might be. *This also posits that the current Big Bang Model (1 Big Bang = source of everything) is correct: and some more 'grand' scenario didn't occur: where another Big-Bang Singularity (possibly infinite) happened beyond reach of current CMBR: 46bil ly. If that is the case, it is likely unknowable; just like the ultimate size of the universe.

Is there any addons im missing or do you have a completly different version of space engine that i don't know of?

[@vinnyzeraBR]

Why is your Space Engine so more beautiful than mine? Even with my graphical settings on the maximum possible, your videos always look way more beautiful than my game. Also, why is your UI different? Are you using a newer version that hasn't been out yet? Isn't the 0.980 the latest version? If you answer me, thanks!

[@WildStar2002]

Fantastic video - loved it! I do have a question: I have Space Engine as well, got it this year (2019), so naturally I wanted to find all these same locations. NONE of them are in my version of the game. I could not even find the HIP catalog stars that you did. I did find the brown dwarf (L V) but 7 planets instead of the 8 that you saw. Can you still find these objects in your game?

[@Rossilaz58]

Do you use the free or paid version?

[@WildStar2002]

@@Rossilaz58 It's the paid version. There are two paid versions - the higher cost one is meant for those who want to use images/video/etc commercially - I don't need that. So, Anton's very first example planet is circling the star HIP 17822. When I type that into the "Find Object" box there is nothing by that name. I looked up the star to see if there were any alternate names: it is also known as HD232841 and BD+53 702. Neither of those names show up either. This star is simply NOT in my Space Engine database! There are two possibilities that occur to me: 1) the game has been changed since Anton uploaded this video and this star is no longer in the database or 2) this DB is incomplete for the lower cost pay version. I haven't been able to get any answers about this on the Steam community either. The one object that I *did* find had different procedurally generated planets than what I saw in my own game. That makes me suspect that the algorithms have been updated and so it does not show the same results anymore.

I got a dumb question maybe. How come a planets mass is 0.5 but the gravity is 0.9g? Why isn't it proportional?

[@RelentlessBROfficial]

Stashmaniac Gravity also depends on the radius of the planet, not only on its mass, that is why, sometimes there is no proportionality. Btw, just in case your interested, that's the formula of gravity g=GM/r²
