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 ...

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.

Experts have issued an urgent warning regarding a supposed upcoming earthquake known as 'The Big One'. Scientists explained that the earthquake could have a magnitude of around 7.7 on the Richter ...

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

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

This segment of the San Andreas Fault, in Palmdale, California, lies about 60 miles (100 km) northwest of Los Angeles. The image was captured from the Space Shuttle Endeavor on Feb. 11, 2000.

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

A small part of the San Andreas Fault that was thought to quietly slide without shaking its neighbors may actually be capable of strong earthquakes, including magnitude-6 shakers, a new study ...

But the San Andreas Fault has about 150 miles (241 km) of slip between either side, meaning that volcanic rocks in Pinnacles National Park match those much farther south, in Los Angeles County.

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 ...
