"So even three headed dinos might exist today, on exo planets beyond our solar system. Now, to become an UFOlogist, that is an expert in UFO's, and ET's, you need to be conversant with the scientific evidence for extraterrestrial life. We're going to cover such subjects as the statistical evidence, the temporal or time evidence. The biochemical evidence, the diversification evidence, and the planetary evidence. Start with the statistical evidence. In our Milky Way galaxy. There are approximately four hundred billion stars. That's a mind boggling number. Assuming ten planets per star, that gives four trillion possible planets, in our Milky Way galaxy alone. And, our cosmos, our island universe is believed to house about a hundred billion galaxies. So we have a possible four hundred billion trillion planets out there. Unbelievable. Then beyond that, there are so-called 'still born' or 'ghost' galaxies. Now this one right here, NVC2915, has only a few hundred stars in it. Other ghost galaxies have far more. But we have established that the average is perhaps about ten billion stars per ghost galaxy. And, we're assuming, perhaps ten billion of them in the cosmos. So overall, they may add another one billion trillion possible planets, just from these failures. Then there are additionally so-called satellite galaxies. There are about a hundred and fifty small satellite galaxies about our Milky Way. But another galaxy, NGC6167, has about fifteen thousand satellite galaxies. So if we assume an average of fifteen hundred so-called satellite galaxies per existing galaxy, we're coming up with another one sixth of a billion trillion possible planets, just from these satellites. Then in addition to that, we have evidence there may be a humongous cloud of white dwarf stars encircling, or enveloping our Milky Way. So even if they just have a few extra stars, they could have possibly, a hundred and fifty billion trillion additional planets, if there's such a cloud about each and every galaxy. That's why I say "We are not alone in the universe." And in addition to that, we may have more possible planets. But let's take a look right now at one from the TV series "The Space Patrol", the mystery of the planet X. Roll tape!"
