Yes but say Kepler would observe millions of stars towards the central Milky Way and should statiscially find several Earths per year, assuming there are any terrestrial type planets around other stars. I believe there are. It's consistent with what we do know but strictly an extrapolation into the unknown.

Nobody KNOWS. That's why we need a Kepler or similar mission.
