What is a earthquake? An earthquake is the shaking of the Earth's surface caused by a sudden release of energy in the crust. This usually happens when giant rock slabs, called tectonic plates, get stuck while moving and then suddenly break free, sending vibrations through the ground in all directions.
If you feel the ground shake, immediately Drop, Cover, and Hold On under a sturdy table until the movement completely stops.
