What's clear from the study is that while California's next "Big One" may share some characteristics of previously documented ...

A study of March's Myanmar earthquake has found that strike-slip faults don't necessarily repeat past behavior, meaning the ...

The massive 2025 Myanmar earthquake revealed that strike slip faults can behave in surprising ways. Using satellite data, ...

When a magnitude 7. 7 earthquake shook Myanmar on March 28, 2025, it wasn’t just another powerful tremor—it was a geological ...

No one knows what to expect from the "Big One," Home Depot is becoming the ICE raid epicenter and more big stories.

Simulations still can't predict exactly when an earthquake will happen, but with the incredible processing power of modern ...

A new study from CalTech sheds light on the behavior of the Sagaing Fault, which is very similar to the San Andreas Fault.

The San Andreas Fault is about 746 miles (1,200 km) long and about 10 miles (16 km) deep. While the San Andreas is a giant fault that is even visible from space, if you zoom in, you'll see a ...

As such, recent predictions limit the possible maximum earthquake magnitude along the San Andreas fault system to 8.0, although with a 7 percent probability estimate that such an event could occur ...

1838, northern San Andreas fault, magnitude 7.4: Damage was reported from San Francisco to Santa Clara; the fault likely ruptured from Woodside on the peninsula south of San Francisco to Watsonville.
