- david-given 11y agoWe know that stars follow statistical laws on a cosmic scale, because we can see them, and have mapped them. So it's a reasonable assumption that life which forms round stars, like us, will be distributed the same way as the stars themselves. It's worth noting that KIC 8462852 is an F3 star very similar to our own, which is a G2.
- codezero 11y agoReasonable assumptions lead us to lots of incorrect conclusions, but I take your point :)
