@USGS

60 years ago #OnThisDay, the largest earthquake ever recorded strikes near Valdivia, #Chile. At magnitude 9.5, it was almost 40 times larger than the Great 1906 San Francisco quake. 2,000 were killed and tsunamis inundated Chile, and parts of Hawaii, Japan and the Philippines.



@GeoGinger

This quake ruptured a section of the subduction zone 800 KM LONG. That's approximately the distance between San Diego and San Francisco
