Scientists at Hebrew University in Israel may have found a way for us to predict earthquakes in the future.

They theorize that slow and steady displacement at certain stress points in the Earth ’s crust typically precede a seismic rupture that leads to earthquakes.

Should these solid theories become reality, it could lead to better warnings of earthquakes before they start, leading to better systems to inform the public.
