(Nov/2020) Luz zodiacal desde #Guadalcanal (hasta rima) !!!!! 😍 https://twitter.com/alipegaso/status/1323728880323223560
Magnitude Mw 7 #earthquake offshore #Guadalcanal island in #Solomon archipelagos. Small #tsunami waves in Honiara on other side of the island.
There, at the San Christobal trench, the Australian plate is subducting beneath the Solomon arc.
Moment tensor solution ("beach ball" on the map) implies rupture either on a vertical fault or a nearly horizontal one. More data and models will be needed to understand if the earthquake happened on the subduction megathrust or within the downgoing plate.

7 août 1942 : débarquement à Guadalcanal
Le 7 août 1942 à 6 h41 du matin, l’ordre « Débarquez les Marines » fut diffusé à l’armada des transports de troupes et des bateaux de débarquement rassemblés au large des plages de #Guadalcanal. Pour la première fois au cours de la guerre du #Pacifique, les forces terrestres américaines prenaient l’offensive contre la puissance conquérante de l’Empire du Soleil Levant.
