Oh no. Most planets humans would die pretty quickly.

But you've seen the night sky. Each star is at least a sun, if not multiples, and each sun has a bunch of planets around it. And the stars you see in the night sky are a small fraction of how many their are.

With those kind of numbers, just having one planet out of ten thousand habitable still provides a lot of planets to work with. And that's just planets we can naturally survive on, let alone the ones we're willing to make dome cities on or try to terraform.

And there are....some planets that have been terraformed. [He pauses, thinking on it a few moments.] Planets with ancient alien technology that have also been made habitable. Which ups our numbers.
