By inhabited do you mean alien life?:hmm:

Given the number of galaxies and the breadth of the universe, ie. infinite, I don't think that any rational scientific mind can discount that possibility.

I love the logical permutations of extraterrestrial life. I think I remember hearing that one book out there holds three theories as to why we are not in contact with other life in the universe or are not aware of it. 3 theories that is that are different from "they're here watching us".

I believe they went:
- that we are the first evolved life in the universe
- that we are the are at a similar level of development to other forms of life
- that we are the last evolved life in the universe

I find those concepts very interesting.

The star is Orange/Red?

In Galactic Civilizations II you can only find habitable planets around Yellow star systems.
