Washington, DC: Regnery Publishing“Lucky for us, the sun is 865,000 miles in diameter, just the right size to burn consistently for a very long time, 8 billion years, long enough to allow the next development to take place. Life!” (Hawking, Into the Universe with Sephen Hawking:The Story of Everything, 2011)“The amount of time a star spends in the main sequence hinges on its mass. Stars with twice the Sun’s mass only spend about a billion years in it, while those with half its mass last about 100 million years.” Gonzales and Richards, The Privileged Planet, 2004 pg 132 “Life can’t use just any type of light from any type of star. Our sun, as it turns out, is near the optimum for any plausible kind of chemical life.” Gonzales and Richards, The Privileged Planet, 2004 pg 68
