Doesnt seem to have done much damage. Its the strongest they have had since 2010 though. And there was that 6.8 quake in Siberia. Is the alignment the cause?

Edit-Didnt expect to find all those quakes below. I just kept finding them. Is that many normal?

An earthquake hit the Walker Lake area Sunday morning. The United States Geological Survey says it measured at a 3.1-magnitude near the southwest side of the lake around 9:35 a.m. That's about 11 miles northwest of Hawthorne. The U.S.G.S. reported a 1.5-magnitude aftershock hit the same area about five minutes later. The Mineral County Sheriff's Office told Channel 2 News that there were no reports of damage or injuries.

AN earthquake in the Alpes de Haute-Provence was felt on the Côte d'Azur with pompiers receiving many calls from residents asking what was happening. Measuring 4.9 on the Richter scale, the quake caused no damage when it struck at 23.37 last night. It lasted for about five seconds and residents reported being shaken from side to side.

That explains why I've had so many headaches lately. Whenever there are lots of quakes scattered all over the world in a short time, that happens. I dread what I'll have to go through when the big one hits.

Monitoring RSOE over time, you'll find that earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are quite frequent every day events all over the planet.

It's part of how a geologically active planet lives and breathes.

It's just when these events coincide with populated areas impacting people that it really makes news and draws attention, bringing out doomsayers and prophets in all their varieties.

It's sad when these natural events cause loss of life or a large disruption of it, but, it's all really quite normal and frequent every day all over the globe activity.

Does seem we're having a lot of rather large magnitude earthquakes in the recent past. According to this guy, it's all on account of a celestial body (Planet X?) entering in our inner solar system and affecting the magnetic field around Earth. Sure would help to explain the explainable animal die-offs recently too.

We're getting to the point where we simply shouldn't dismiss the unthinkable because many of us feel, somethin's up and secrets are abound.

Now.....I am a Nibiru believer in that, it did at one time (and possibly still does) exist. So this presentation intrigued me. I also don't happen to believe much of what NASA peddles out either. So, needless to say, I watched this video with great interest.

I will take a look.

Maybe its 2011 AG5

Yes, it's completely normal. I chuckled when I saw you listed a 2.3, gee we only get 1.3 million earthquakes a year in the 2.0 to 2.9 range

You have two listed in the 3's range, those are also quite frequent (130,000 a year).

Anything under 6.0 is considered light to moderate and not really worthy of mention because they are so common. Even when you get into the 6.0-6.9 range there are 134 per year on average, so it's not particularly remarkable.

Glad I could give you a chuckle.

I did put a smiley under the alignment comment. And I usually find the 'fragile earth' threads pretty funny myself. There is alot of interest in earthquakes. Maybe my sense of humour is more highly evolved than yours. Maybe you give me a chuckle. Clap clap.Gee,you are so clever,

Have you check out the 2012 Quakewatch thread? It is an ongoing thread with lots of valuable information regarding earthquakes. Although little ones don't usually get posted there.

Ive never seen that thanks.

Clap clap for you too.

Total rubbish:

According to this guy, it's all on account of a celestial body (Planet X?) entering in our inner solar system and affecting the magnetic field around Earth.

I do wonder what some people think, when they fall for junk like this guy's.

What happened to science and logic and reason, in today's world?

There IS NO "Planet X" entering our inner Solar System. Period. It is nonsense.

Let me know what you think
And the fact that ProudWeedBird followed me over here to mock ONLY my post (as usual),...... is MORE of a reason to consider it.

Considering an extra celestial body, tugging on our planet and Sun etc....sure does fill in a lot of gaps.
Time will tell.
Not saying it's absolute.
Just saying it's a thought.

And here comes ProudWacker in 3,2,1.............................

Try to reason it out, along with me.

The inner Solar System consists of the four rocky "terrestrial" planets:

Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars

Of those other three planets, as they orbit in their respective positions, do they "cause" earthquakes on Earth? Yes, or no?


If "no", then try to figure out how some other "Planet X" could have any sort of "inflouence" to "cause" earthquakes.


Now, more logic: We can see Mercury, Venus and Mars, can we not? Even with the naked eye -- don't even need a telescope.

So, this claim of "Planet X" already in the inner Solar System? Where is it? Why can't it be seen? Why is it not affecting the orbits of any other planets, with its gravitational presence??


This planet (Earth) is very active, geologically. It is known as the science of Plate Tectonics. This is why there are earthquakes....and why there will continue to be earthquakes, for as long as the center of the Earth is hot, and is active. This will be the case for many millions of years still to come.
