Why the New Jersey earthquake was felt several hundred miles away
Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
  • An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.

  • While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.

  • Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.

  • President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.

Quick Glance: New York inmates' legal action over solar phenomenon
  • Prisoners in a New York correctional facility have taken legal action as the state's Department of Corrections announced restrictions that would hinder their observation of the upcoming total solar eclipse next week.

  • The six individuals incarcerated at Woodbourne Correctional Facility are asserting that preventing them from witnessing this rare astronomical occurrence would infringe upon their religious rights as outlined in the constitution.

  • The impending solar eclipse is scheduled for Monday afternoon and was last visible in the United States back in 2017. It will not be observable in the country again until 2044.

  • A representative from the Department of Corrections informed ABC News that they refrain from commenting on ongoing legal matters but emphasized that the lockdown's purpose is to prioritize the "safety" of both the inmates and prison staff.

Quick Glance: Why Christians Wake Up Before Sunrise to Celebrate Easter
  • On Easter morning, many Christians gather before dawn to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, the son of God, as the sun rises. March 31 marks Easter Sunday this year for the majority of Christians worldwide and the tradition of sunrise services.

  • Easter celebrations are not fixed to a specific date, but move between March 22 and April 25 based on a lunar calendar calculation. The biblical symbolism of the Easter worship of the early risers is rooted in the New Testament Gospels.

  • It is unclear if the Moravian Church was the first to hold Easter sunrise services, but their annual tradition dates back to 1732. Moravians are known for their brass and wind instrument trombone choirs that accompany the Easter services.

  • In addition to the traditional liturgies, the Easter sunrise service includes a silent procession to the Salem Moravian Graveyard, also known as 'God's Acre,' ending among the graves of past generations. Other Easter service traditions include Easter vigils and services in various styles at different locations.
