1000311 Big Earthquake in Japan

Big Earthquake in Japan
By Max
     Today, a big earthquake happened in Japan. This earthquake was very big; the magnitude in Japan was 8.9. This earthquake is the fifth largest earthquake in the whole world, and the biggest earthquake ever in Japan. At about 7:00 pm, already 41 people died and even more people are missing. This earthquake also caused some big fires and some big tsunamis that can attack the whole Pacific.
     Recently, I think there are too many earthquakes in February and March. At February, New Zealand’s earthquake was so big, that rebuilding may take 10 years. At March, five earthquakes happened in only three days! These five earthquakes all almost reached to magnitude 6!
     Scientists found out that the “super moon” is going to happen in March 19th. This thing occurs when the moon is close to Earth as possible, and something scary is going to happen, but we don’t know what it is. We maybe think these earthquakes would be related to the “super moon”, but the scientists don’t think so. At least we know, our world is very dangerous right now.
