Probabilities of a temperate terrestrial planet for the conservative (top) and optimistic (bottom) assumptions for searching for potentially habitable worlds in nearby star systems. Simulated values are for systems with no known planets, predicted values are for systems with known planets. Systems with a probability of zero are not shown. The number of counts in each probability bin is the number of EMSL stars that have that probability of a temperate terrestrial planet.
