The Drake Equation was created by Dr. Frank Drake. It is used to test the probability of their being extra-terrestrial life. The equation is written as N = R x Fp x Ne x Fe x Fi x Fc x L. N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy where communication might be possible. R is the average rate formation per year in our galaxy. Fp is the fraction of those stars that have planets. Ne is the number of planets that can possibly support life. Fe is the fraction that can potentially develop life at some point. Fi is the fraction that can develop intelligent life. Fc is the fraction of civilizations that can develop technology that releases detectable signals into space. Finally, L is the length of time such civlizations release detectable signals into space.
Well I'm not sure which Drake you're talking about, but if you're talking about Drake in Drake & Josh, then His name is Drake Bell (or Drake Parker in Drake & Josh)

Drake Equation - album - was created on 2001-06-12.
The last four parameters of the Drake equation (fl, fi, fc, and L) are not known.

The constant "t" in an equation represents time, and its significance lies in determining how the variables in the equation change over time.
Yes. Quoting from Wikipedia: "The Drake equation has proved controversial since several of its factors are currently unknown, and estimates of their values span a very wide range."
There is no significance at all.
It is the general form of a quadratic equation.
The Drake Equation is an interesting bit of wondrous speculation, that seeks to incorporate several reasonable statistical assumptions, that are based loosely on astronomical observations, into a single mathematical operation. The output of the operation is . . . The number of planets in our galaxy that are presently inhabited by technologically accomplished, intelligent civilizations.
N - o - n - e ________________________________ 50/50; there either is, or there isn't. At this point, anything more precise depends on guesswork. The problem with the Drake Equation is that it is so dependent on factors for which we have no solid information.
Can't beat Wikipedia for most things. See related link for the Drake Equation"
There are limits here as regards what characters can be posted. Use the link below to see the Drake equation. What the Drake equation is designed to calculate is the number N, where N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible. The equation is an interesting one, but it is full of variables over which any number of investigators can debate and attempt to agree on. In this light, the equation cannot yield a "number" that we can post and point to while saying, "That's how many planets have intelligent life on them that we can communicate with."
Scientists used it to develop Nuclear Power
