Earthquake‚ shaking of the Earth’s surface caused by rapid movement of the Earth’s rocky outer layer. Earthquakes occur when energy stored within the Earth‚ usually in the form of strain in rocks‚ suddenly releases. This energy is transmitted to the surface of the Earth by earthquake waves. The destruction an earthquake causes depends on its magnitude and duration‚ or the amount of shaking that occurs. A structure’s design and the materials used in its construction also affect the amount of damage

money in offshore oil drilling. I understand that the world is facing global warming‚ and the environment is becoming unsafe. But the drilling for oil is only one problem‚ there are several other reasons for global warming. I think that people should keep our reserves that we have in the states just in case we need them for hard times.

The NASA project New Horizon may build on its successes via Kuiper Belt flyby. The New Horizon team of researchers also plans to study MU69 in more depth. Could this be another secret alien space mission? New Horizon had recent success after it accomplished its Pluto flyby without crashing or deviating from its scheduled course. This has been impressive for NASA‚ given the distance from Earth to Pluto. However‚ there may be more at stake for the MU69 mission. Maybe NASA is looking to make contact
