    17 billion Earth-sized exoplanets reside in the Milky Way Galaxy. the concentration of stars drops smoothly with distance from the center of the Galaxy.
    Spiral galaxies are likely to harbor intelligent life by design. A logarithmic spiral, equiangular spiral or growth spiral is a special kind of spiral curve which often appears in nature. The logarithmic spiral was first described by Descartes and later extensively investigated by Jacob Bernoulli, who called it Spira mirabilis, "the marvelous spiral".
