Earthquakes can involve shifting hundreds of kilometers of rock by several meters, changing the distribution of mass on the planet. This affects the Earth’s rotation, said Richard Gross, a geophysicist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, who uses a computer model to calculate the effects. “The length of the day should have gotten shorter by 1.26 microseconds (millionths of a second),” Gross, said today in an e-mailed reply to questions. “The axis about which the Earth’s mass is balanced should have moved by 2.7 milliarcseconds (about 8 centimeters or 3 inches).””<br/><br/> - <em><p><a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601109&sid=aLAUn4Gy92ss&pos=10">Chilean Quake Likely Shifted Earth’s Axis, NASA Scientist Says - Bloomberg.com</a></p> <p>Okay, so we’re talking a couple inches, but that was once very serious earthquake!
