Re: Project for Roger; first results

I looked at mag 7+ quakes, 1900-2007 from the Centennial Catalog, finding 1729 of them.

I compared those to a list of supermoons and found only 60 instances of a match within a 6 day window centered on the syzygy date.

The probability of such a quake falling within a 6 day window is 22.1% so you might expect to see 382 hits.

Looks like quakes avoid supermoons!
