will now determine the type and number of instruments to place in the shaft and at what depths to place them.

Either this is bad reporting or these scientists are idiots.

Spending our tax money without a plan.

Ready, Shoot, ummmm Aim.

Holy crap, 1900+ feet to bedrock? I worked on a water well drilling rig, and drilled caissons for deep foundations, mostly in new england, and 200' is about as deep as ew ever went before hitting rock. Never drilled many wells over 900' to get sufficient water.

The New Madrid Fault could go at any time, or, not for 20,000 years.

Is it as big a fault as San Andreas?
Or bigger?

Just another boring thread?

Is there a old Madrid Seismic Zone?

Interesting. We are in central Missouri, which could be affected by an EQ in this fault area.

I grew up in Henderson, KY, maybe 200 miles straight line from the New Madrid fault--we had tremors all the time. One year, I think about '68 we had about a 7.0 quake that crumbled part of city hall, knocked some houses off foundations, etc. Pretty scary and strange feeling with the ground rolling and rumbling around.

Bedrock was found at 1948 feet? It's about 3" at my house, except in some places where it protrudes right up through and above the grass.

I heard on radio yesterday that there was an earthquake in LaGrange, Illinois (western suburb of Chicago). Last I heard, there was backtracking....and it was then announced that authorities were investigating to see if it was indeed an earthquake or a planned explosion in an area quarry, LOL.

If anyone has heard anything, let me know.
