Good morning and welcome to Kid News. I'm Tori. Today is Tuesday, April 28th, 2026. And we begin with the

controversial new movie about the King of Pop, moonwalking its way into the record books. Michael

opened to a staggering $97 million in the U.S. and $217 million globally in its debut weekend. That's the biggest

opening ever for a biopic, a film based on the real events of a famous person's life,

crushing the previous record set by Straight Outta Compton back in 2015. Michael Jackson's

real-life nephew, Jafar Jackson, portrays the performer in the film, which traces his journey from the Jackson 5 to his iconic bad tour.

Despite the love from fans, critics have largely voted thumbs down on the film.

It scored just 38% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

But audiences don't seem to care. They're filling

theaters and in some cases dancing in their seats. Two tech titans are battling it out in court.

Jury selection is underway in Oakland, California as Elon Musk sues Sam Altman over artificial intelligence company,

Open AI. Mr. Musk claims that when he partnered with Mr. Altman to fund it, it was as a

nonprofit that would ensure safe AI for the world, but that Mr. Altman then pivoted OpenAI into a

monstrous money-making venture with fewer guardrails.

According to ABC News, Mr. Altman counters that the suit is nothing more than sour grapes from a person who went on to create his own AI company.

The trial between two of technology's most influential figures and former friends is expected to last about a month.

NASA is planning to start a fire on the moon, all in the name of safety. Later this year, the agency

will fly an uncrewed lander to the lunar surface and ignite fuel samples. The goal is to understand how fire

behaves in the moon's low gravity, which is about one-sixths of Earths. Researchers are concerned

that flight materials rated safe could actually be more combustible on the moon, which would

be a super dangerous scenario for astronauts who are tethered to already

highly flammable, portable oxygen to breathe.
