falldown Offer Upgrade User ID: 520470 United States 06/08/2009 03:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	5.7-magnitude earthquake shakes Honduras [link to www.hindustantimes.com] A moderate 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook the Central American nation of Honduras late on Sunday, the US government reported. The epicenter of the tremor, which occurred at 23:13 pm local time (0513 GMT Monday), was located 24 kilometers (15 miles) northwest of the Caribbean port city of La Ceiba, according to the US Geological Survey. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage. The reading was based on the open-ended Moment Magnitude scale, now used by US seismologists, which measures the area of the fault that ruptured and the total energy released. ~ ~ "He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words." ~Elbert Hubbard

Quoting: MBECCU 697457 Actually, they use the "moment magnitude scale" these days (but still use Richter, because it's faster to approximate), but both scales are logarithmic, and the Nagasaki bomb was about equal to a 5.0 earthquake. So, granted, not jaw-dropping, but still a pretty impressive deal, especially if you're lucky enough to be standing right on top of it. ~ ~ "He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words." ~Elbert Hubbard

On the same map we can see the Yucatan Peninsula and I would also like to put out there the theory that the Chicxulub crater could also be the caldera of a supervolcano as shocked quartz is also found in volcanic areas and iridium is also present deep within the Earth.
