Statistically speaking, what is the approximate probability of this happening on another planet?

8 planets in the solar system.
1 with life.
so around 1/8.

Complexity is a thermodynamic entropy maximizer. So I would say the odds are pretty high.

It has happened almost surely (lebesgue measure 1)

how come they never sent us any messages so far?
didn't we fire off rockets filled with piss and shit and english alphabet and pictures of DNA and stuff allegedly maybe it reaches some other planet.

We are on a higher cloud loop with mass functions on a larger scale between the aquatic and bipeds.

Humans evolving again, entirely convergently from abiogenesis, on another planet? Functionally 0% chance. Think about all the random mutations that would need to emerge sequentially, in the exact same order, selected for under the exact same conditions an unfathomable amount of times. Just think of how minor environmental differences could cause massive butterfly effects. Let's get evidence of ANY life before we start speculating on convergent humans.

Assuming they would use radio waves to send a message (like we did a few times) what are the odds of one reaching us, considering we've only been able to receive those for about a hundred years max. Not to mention you'd have to train an antenna at the correct place at just the right moment

Makes me want to reset the earth to 4000 million years ago and see how what kind of life would evolve instead in the exact same conditions
