The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

Ok, to make a long story short it goes something like this, take the first Mummy movie, and combine that one with Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and you have The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Just like those previous films I just mentioned, this one was just as predictable. Hopefully this will be the last of the Mummy films; Brendan Fraser is too talented an actor to be type cast to this kind of genre of films. Although I did enjoy the one scene when Jet Li's character transforms himself into a three headed dragon, it kind of reminded me of King Ghidorah in those campy 1960s Godzilla movies. In summation, this is another summertime popcorn flick not to be taken seriously.

Liquid Discovered on Saturn’s Moon Titan

Since the space probe Cassini reached Saturn in 2004, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has been studying in depth the ringed planet and its moons. One moon in particular Titan, which scientists theorized had liquid on its surface, but could never verify until Cassini reached Saturn. After over forty close fly-bys of Titan, the spacecraft dropped a probe to land on the surface of the moon, the end results were some rather startling images. First was the discovery that Titan did indeed possess an atmosphere made up primarily of methane gas. The second discovery was that Titan has lakes of liquid ethane, which makes Titan the only other planet besides Earth with liquid on its surface. For those who don't know, liquid ethane is a component of crude oil, which means, Shell, Exxon/Mobil, or BP better take advantage of this before Al Gore decides to blockade the planet.
