The seismic data showed that the tremors were not caused by an earthquake, the agency says. And although the tremors occurred about 20 minutes after what might have been a minor blast in Poland, the scientists don’t think that caused the strange shaking, either...

EXCERPT:
“This happens a couple of times a year,” Lund says. “We have reports of shaking and low-frequency noise from a very large area, and we have no indications in the seismic data of earthquakes or major blasts.”
