So a 200-lb person on earth would weigh 720 pounds there, and its parent star is 7 times as far away as the NEXT nearest star to earth.

The weight is also dependent on radius. If this place has double the radius as earth, his weight is only 180 pounds.

How is all this holding up regarding the "Drake Equation" which esimated the frequency of habitable plants?

I just noticed your post. I wouldn’t have bothered with my #13, if I had seen yours first. With the way FR is acting today (very slow for me), I got distracted for a few minutes, in the middle of posting, and didn’t know that you had alredy posted essentially the same point.

This explains Michael Moore's "draw."
