The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "b. 2." A current estimate using the Drake equation suggests that there are about two other civilizations in our galaxy with which we could communicate. Suppose you believe that civilizations last two times longer than the number used in the estimate. If that were the case, there will be 2 civilizations that would you estimate we could communicate with.
