The Drake equation was devised by Dr. Frank Drake in 1960, in an attempt to estimate the number of extraterrestrial civilizations in the Milky Way (our galaxy) with which we might come into contact. Best current estimates for the parameters of the Drake equation result in a value of 2.31 civilizations. (via @revgeorge)
If at all possible, could we please come in contact with the .31 civilization first? 1.0 sounds like a bit much to take for the first go around.
