NASA's next great observatory could spot oceans on distant worlds

We've found more than 5,500 exoplanets so far. Dozens of them are in the habitable zones of their parent stars, where, at least in theory, they could host an ocean. But we've never definitively found a liquid ocean on another planet.

‘Practical Magic 2’ Brews Up $46M WW In Global Opening

Warner Bros/Alcon’s Practical Magic 2 wound up flying to a $46M global debut, with $16M overseas and $30M domestic. Note the sequel to this Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman 1990s property is stateside driven, so expect a bulk of the gross to come from there.
