M 4.6 earthquake near southern East Pacific Rise.
A magnitude 4.6 earthquake occurred near the southern East Pacific Rise, which is an underwater mountain range where Earth's tectonic plates are spreading apart in the Pacific Ocean. While moderate earthquakes are common in this region due to the constant movement of plates, this event helps scientists monitor seismic activity and better understand how our planet's crust is constantly reshaping itself.
