When your phone vibrates, it's a notification; when the Earth vibrates, it's an earthquake, often with far more serious implications. You might think they're random, but understanding the powerful forces beneath our feet reveals a surprising, constant geological dance.
Earthquakes are trending because our planet is constantly shifting, and recent significant seismic events have brought this natural phenomenon into sharp focus.
