They shake the ground underfoot, causing tremors that at their worst
can leave cracks in highways and topple buildings. But for the most part,
earthquakes are constantly rumbling the Earth with a force that's barely
detectable. But why do they occur? In All About Earthquakes, children
will examine the forces at work that cause earthquakes and discover the
instruments that scientists use to predict and measure these earthly tremors.
A visit to Mammoth Lakes in California showcases an advanced network
of lasers that measure ground movement in the area, while a fun, hands-on
activity demonstrates how architects test their designs by using a shaker table. 23 minutes.
