**News Flash: Scientists Uncover Alarming Discovery About Faultline Impacts** Scientists have made a startling discovery that could have major implications for the potential impact of earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest. A study conducted by researchers has revealed that the size of the outer wedge of a faultline, the area where two tectonic plates meet, can significantly magnify the impact of a rupture. This finding is particularly concerning for the Cascadia Fault, which runs from Vancouver Island to northern California. In northern Los Angeles County, California, a cluster of precariously balanced rocks, known as "The Big One Rocks," provides clues to the severity of the potential earthquake threat. These rocks are located just 93 miles (15 kilometers) from the San Andreas Fault. California has a long history of devastating earthquakes, including those in 1906, 1964, and 1989. Scientists estimate that the state is about 80 years overdue for another major earthquake. The latest research suggests that the Cascadia Fault could produce an earthquake with a magnitude of up to 9.0, which would be even more powerful than the 7.9 San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Such an earthquake could cause widespread damage and loss of life. Scientists are urging residents in these areas to be prepared for the possibility of a major earthquake. This includes having an emergency plan, stocking up on supplies, and understanding what to do in the event of a disaster. As scientists continue to study faultlines and earthquake patterns, they hope to gain a better understanding of these natural hazards and mitigate their potential impacts on human communities.
