California's Garlock fault line, was jostled into moving for the first time on record
The 185-mile long Garlock fault, which runs east-west from the San Andreas Fault to Death Valley along the north end of the Mojave Desert, is just a few miles from where the Ridgecrest ruptures ended in July. It has slipped 0.8 inches at the surface since July, creating a bulge of land which is visible from space.

NASA satellite spots star-shredding supermassive black hole
Tidal disruption events occur when a star passes too close to a black hole, and extreme gravity causes the star to rip apart into a stream of gas. NASA created this visualization to show how the tidal disruption called ASASSN-19bt happened.
