Does life in the universe depend on dark energy?

The Drake equation, designed to estimate the number of potential extraterrestrial civilizations, was the basis for investigating the likelihood of a reasonable life in space. Inclusion in the analysis of the impact of dark energy has become a significant step in expanding our ideas about the universe and its ability to support life.

The dark energy that accelerates the expansion of the universe is about 71.4% of the total energy budget of the universe. It influences the formation of stars through its interaction with gravity and collapse of dust clouds. The model developed by the physicist Daniele Sorini and his team showed that the ideal universe for star formation could have a coefficient of transformation of matter into stars about 27%, while in our universe this figure is 23%. This indicates that our conditions are not optimal, although sufficient for life.

The results of the studies call into question the anthropocentric assumption that the Earth occupies a unique position in the universe. According to Sorini, even with the higher density of dark energy of life, it could exist, which emphasizes the adaptability of life to various cosmic conditions. In addition to dark energy, many other factors, such as the frequency of stars with planetary systems, prevalence of planets, and biochemical mechanisms of life, are influenced by the emergence of reasonable life. This opens new ways to find extraterrestrial reason and focuses attention on those regions of the universe where the conditions can be more favorable.

Studies, similar to this, have the potential to expand our understanding of cosmology and answer the eternal questions about the role of humanity in the universe. The hypothetical modeling offered by theorists such as Lucas Lombrister can help determine how the parameters of the universe affect the likelihood of life and check whether our universe is exceptional in this regard.
