Why do you think you're right?
assuming we discover say 150 exoplanets a year, (with the rate increasing each year and that our ability to discover planets in the habitable zone also increasing and one in 3 planets discovered typically in the habitable zone finding an additional 5 more planets in this time period seems highly likely
Files
Why might you be wrong?
We may cease searching for economic reasons. The rate of discovery may drop off as we have discovered the "low hanging fruit".

Why do you think you're right?
China needs to focus on the internal economy rather than external adventures. It would be too uncertain an outcome to attack Taiwan at themoment
Files
Why might you be wrong?
A blockade might be possible as a response to a provocation. Chinese leadership may desire an external distraction to internal problems
