The following is from YTN, S. Korea's cable news channel. They are using data from S. Korea's weather agency, which may not match what USGS or other agencies have(for example, difference in the magnitude of quakes.)

Event Magnitude* Time
6th Nuclear Test 5.7 2017-09-03 12:29
1st Quake 4.4 2017-09-03 12:38
2nd Quake 2.6 2017-09-23 13:43
3rd Quake 3.2 2017-09-23 17:29
4th Quake 2.7 2017-10-13 01:41

* note: magnitudes listed here are from S. Korea's weather agency which are different from USGS estimates which tend to be higher.

According to their map, the location of quake is moving steadily from south to north heading toward Mt. Paekdu.

The YTN report also says that the magma chamber of Mt. Paekdu extends out 40 km south, which is 60 km away from the N.Korea's test site.

Be a real shame if that nuclear test site collapsed and started leaking a plume of radiation into China or Russia

A real shame

A kinetic hit from a space based platform?

Here is one scenario about what happens if Mt. Paekdu erupts, according to Chosun Ilbo, a S. Korean daily. This assumes that a high pressure system is in the West and a low pressure system, in the East. In winter, a high pressure system forms in the North West of Korea, and wind is blowing from NW to SE. The first map shows the pattern of volcanic ash spreading after 36 hours, and the second, after 72 hours.

Has Fat Boy initiated a volcanic eruption?

The last time Paektu erupted over 1000 years ago, it spewed 100+ cubic kilometers of debris.

Works on kinetic energy. Simply a weight that falls from space and hits with the force of a big bomb. Don't know much about this
