Unlike a cash lottery for which we intend there to be a winner, winners of a cosmic lottery do not "necessarily" exist--a winner like us is not guaranteed, I mean.

Not guaranteed, no, but it has been verified experimentally.

  An experiment has verified that there is a cosmic lottery, and that the winner of a cosmic lottery gets a planet like ours?

    Humor is lost on HN. No, our existence has been verified, and therefore a planet on which we can exist does exist. I hope we don't need to go further with this line of inquiry.

    Oy. NO. One winner exists. You live on it.
