There are other Earths. And some have developed technological civilisations like ours and beyond. OK, they're the dead ones with the nuclear craters and ash filled skies. But they could still have Daleks or something wandering around.
What will the world be like after its ruler is removed?

I believe Galaxian has met some of these other civilisations.

Re: What is "Earth-like"?
Scream material for rainbow:
Astronomers have detected a record seven Earth-sized planets orbiting a single star.
The researchers say that all seven could potentially support liquid water on the surface, depending on the other properties of those planets.
But only three are within the conventional "habitable" zone where life is considered a possibility.
The compact system of exoplanets orbits Trappist-1, a low-mass, cool star located 40 light-years away from Earth.
