Why Did the Earth Shake in Delhi?

In February 2025, a 4.0 magnitude earthquake shook Delhi. It was a shallow earthquake, meaning it happened close to the Earth’s surface. Scientists say it was caused by water movement underground — a process called hydro fracturing — near ancient fault lines in the Aravalli-Delhi Fold Belt. An earthquake happens when rocks deep under the Earth suddenly move and release energy. This energy travels as seismic waves, which make the ground shake. Sometimes the shaking is light and barely noticeable, and sometimes it can cause major damage depending on how much energy is released and how close it is to the surface. The Delhi earthquake was called a “shallow” earthquake because it happened just 5 kilometers below the ground. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly because the energy has less distance to travel to reach the surface. Even though the Delhi quake was only 4.0 on the Richter Scale, many people felt it sharply because of how close it was to the surface. An AI generated im...

MODERN WARFARE: Faster, Smarter, Deadlier

Countries aren’t just using tanks, jets, and soldiers anymore. Now, drones, artificial intelligence (AI), and super-fast missiles are leading battles and making wars even more dangerous. Recently, Iran surprised experts by using drones and the Hypersonic Fattah Missiles to attack Israel’s Iron Dome. The Iron Dome is famous for stopping missiles, but this time, it struggled. Iran’s smart use of cheap, low-flying drones and fast missiles showed that even the best defenses can be beaten. Photo Source: Mehr News Agency Russia has also used drones in its war with Ukraine. Russian forces have launched Iranian-made Shahed Drones that crash into targets and explode. Because they come in big groups, they are hard to stop and cause a lot of damage. This way, Russia causes a lot of damage without spending too ...
