A new study suggests there could be as many as 60 billion planets that could support life orbiting red dwarf stars in the Milky Way alone. That's about double previous estimates.
Of course, such a number strongly suggests that life is common throughout the universe. Since red dwarf stars are the most common stars in the galaxy, it also suggests that if humanity masters interstellar travel we will have plenty of inviting places to settle.
