They better damn hope there isn’t a San Andreas temblor in the next week or so or the whole damn internet will believe NASA caused it.

Maybe it flew near the southern part of the fault. But most of the zigzag track is nowhere near the northern part of the SAF where the fault cuts through the SF Bay Area and the SF Peninsula.

The plane track zigzags more across the eastern part of the Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada foothills.

Don't forget about the Owens Valley quake near Lone Pine of 1872.

From Wikipedia:

he 1872 Lone Pine earthquake struck on March 26 at 02:30 local time with an estimated moment magnitude of 7.4 to 7.9 and a maximum Mercalli Intensity of X (Extreme). Its epicenter was near Lone Pine, California, in Owens Valley. It was one of the largest earthquakes to hit California in recorded history and was similar in size to the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Twenty-seven people were killed and fifty-six were injured.

The earthquake occurred on a Tuesday morning and leveled almost all the buildings in Lone Pine and nearby settlements.[4] Of the estimated 250–300 inhabitants of Lone Pine, 27 are known to have perished and 52 of the 59 houses were destroyed. One report states that the main buildings were thrown down in almost every town in Inyo County. About 130 kilometers (81 mi) south of Lone Pine, at Indian Wells, Kern County, California, adobe houses sustained cracks. Property loss has been estimated at $250,000 (equivalent to $5,228,472 in 2018). As in many earthquakes, adobe, stone and masonry structures fared worse than wooden ones which prompted the closing of nearby Camp Independence which was an adobe structure destroyed in the quake.

The quake was felt strongly as far away as Sacramento, where citizens were startled out of bed and into the streets. Giant rockslides in what is now Yosemite National Park woke naturalist John Muir, then living in Yosemite Valley, who reportedly ran out of his cabin shouting, "A noble earthquake!" and promptly made a moonlit survey of the fresh talus piles. This earthquake stopped clocks and awakened people in San Diego, California, to the south, Red Bluff, California, to the north, and Elko, Nevada, to the east.

The shock was felt over most of California and much of Nevada. Thousands of aftershocks occurred, some severe.

#4: "Any idea if NASA does any LIDAR imaging?"

California? Probably GAYDAR imaging.

If it takes a NASA plane flying over to make a California citizen nervous about an earthquake in their state, they are either completely stupid and ignorant, not paying attention to history, or both.

And, yes, it will end up being a racist quake in the conspiracy, as it will no matter what the truth, be said to have adversely impacted black or Hispanic persons.

I’m sure they’ll find some way to claim white people still had water to water their lawns.

Aside: after the Haiti quake I expressed my amazement that the newly discovered fault wasn’t formerly named the Bush’s Fault.

What you need to worry about is when the aircraft that shoots a laser beam into the earthquake faults! : )

Likely they’re tracking ground movement near the fault by means if high-res SAR imaging.

Do underground nuke testing on the fault. That’ll take care of LA’s problem.

Thanks, BL. That’s a scary video. It’s well done.

I think the Cascadia fault off the coast of Oregon and Wash. has the potential to do more damage than the San Andreas.

Imagine a 9.2 on the Richter scale. 100 times worse, or 2 orders of magnitude greater. All of these “little” quakes release a lot of tension that builds toward “ the big one.”
