I read that somewhere too about the earths axis being tossed off a bit. I knew Japan had moved some rediculous amount, had dropped in elevation in most areas but ~5 feet on average, and that the japan side of the fault that caused this quake was **UP** 52 feet underwater :ohnoes

it confuses the shit out of me how a earthquake could shift the earth’s axis tho. Or how they can even get such a minimal measurement of 4 inches about it…

I know its a minimal ammount given the size of the earth, but have they talked about if it could cause any adverse effects?

I’m sure it does/will. A minor tilt of only a couple degrees can fuck shit up pretty good for us.

Four inches is not even close to degrees dude, and I know that you know that. Will it effect us? It might… but still. Not degrees lol.
