Jessica Hodge+FollowScientists Just Drilled Into a Tsunami Fault!Imagine drilling 7km under the sea just to grab a piece of the fault that caused the 2011 Japan mega-earthquake and tsunami. That’s exactly what a team of 60 scientists did, pulling up deep-sea cores that could reveal how these monster quakes get triggered. They even installed a high-tech observatory to watch the fault in real time. This could totally change how we predict and prepare for tsunamis worldwide. Wild, right? #Science #earthquake #tsunami70Share

Lauren Cooper+FollowHonolulu’s tsunami gridlock: Lessons learnedWhen a tsunami warning hit Honolulu during rush hour, traffic in dense neighborhoods like Kakaako ground to a halt—not because everyone was in danger, but because so many people evacuated unnecessarily. Residents, hotel workers, and even tourists all jumped in their cars, clogging roads for hours. Officials now say that 'over-evacuation' made things worse, and that many could have safely stayed put or walked to higher ground. This experience has folks asking: how can we better prepare and communicate next time, so only those truly at risk need to move? What would you do if a warning came through? #Transportation #Honolulu #Tsunami00Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowAmber Tsunami? 116-Million-Year-Old MysteryScientists just found what might be the oldest tsunami evidence ever—trapped in amber from 116 million years ago! They discovered weirdly deformed amber deep in ancient ocean sediment in Japan, suggesting a massive tsunami swept tree resin straight from land to sea. The resin didn’t even have time to dry out before getting buried underwater. This could totally change how we spot ancient tsunamis in the fossil record. Nature’s time capsules are wild! #ScienceNews #Tsunami #Amber #FossilFinds #NatureMystery #Science20Share
