They are so much the same that we have to symmetrize/anti-symmetrize our equations to get the correct answers. As you go up in scale the number of possible combinations of these identical objects increases exponentially and the probability of finding the same "thing" twice becomes vanishingly small. There is, if you like, "no chance in hell", that there is a second earth or even anything remotely close. | |
