7 Movies About Pearl Harbor And How To Watch Them

December 7th, 1941 was called the day that would live in infamy by then-President Franklin Roosevelt. There’s little argument over 80 years later that he was right. The event sent the United States into World War II, and in doing so quite possibly changed the destiny of the United States of America.

Because new findings suggest that two out of three are actually bad, unless you’re in search of uninhabitable baked planets with boiling oceans.However, it’s in the remaining one third that now has scientists excited, as this fraction still accounts for hundreds of millions of planets that could be in a "just right" goldilocks orbit…
