Relative likelihood for life as a function of cosmic time

Is life most likely to emerge at the present cosmic time near a star like the Sun? We address this question by calculating the relative formation probability per unit time of habitable Earth-like planets within a fixed comoving volume of the Universe, dP (t)/dt, starting from the first stars and con...
