Drake states the probablility and hence how many scientific well developed civilisations there is in the Universe. Another factor and we get the number of intelligent technological civilisations *with* a laboratory producing Einstein Bose condensate. (What will they call the matter?)
Nature itself can't produce EB condencsate, right? Not even God himself? So this is a invention of man, and man alone, isn't it? As far we know it, of course...

Tell me, Gino, where is the coldest known place in entire Universe?

Now I have rephreased my statement to "And this is the coldest known place in the entire Universe!" because other intelligent beings with laboratories than the earthly ones are not known.
