This isn't correct, in therevada also there were many past buddhas, and the current one, gotama, talks about them occasionally.
Yes, but aren't those in other world systems, not just Earth? Its been awhile since I read the suttas.
I don't remember either. But there have been and will be many more buddhas.
EDIT: I recall a sutta where Gotama looked into his past lives, and his encounter with one of the past buddhas that put in him the desire to become one. So I assume there have been many earth buddhas.
Yes, I remember that story as well, but I never assumed it had to be Earth for some reason. I should ask some monks ig.
