What If We’re Not Alone? | Exploring the Drake Equation

In this episode, we unravel the legendary Drake Equation — a deceptively simple formula that dares to quantify one of humanity’s most profound questions: Are we alone in the universe?

Join Solaris as we break down each piece of the equation, from star formation and habitable planets to the emergence of intelligence and the longevity of civilizations. But we won’t stop at the math — we’ll dive into its deeper meaning.

What does the eerie silence of the cosmos tell us? Could civilizations have existed before us? And what if we’re among the first?

Featuring the philosophical twist of “cosmic archaeology” and modern searches for technosignatures, this episode blends science, wonder, and reflection — all in 15 minutes.

Because sometimes… the biggest questions can be hidden in a single line of math.
