Two physicists from Omni Calculator, Steven Wooding and Luciano Miño, used the Drake Equation to build a tool that calculates your odds of finding love. Their tool combines both astrophysics and statistics to determine how many matches are available in a user’s area and compares their chances of dating to the likelihood of aliens.
They say that finding love is a numbers game and that if you kiss enough frogs, you'll eventually find your prince/princess. But how many exactly? That's where our tool comes in. Since the Drake equation was originally invented to estimate the number of alien civilizations in our galaxy, we added a fun factor to help you gauge whether you need to widen your preferences or move to a different state.
