         Earthquake Prediction a Reality and an Asset.

People talk about prediction I am moving a step further, the Earthquake is an event when tectonics plate moves and the energy that is accumulated beneath the earth came out. If this energy is being utilised for commercial purpose, then the problem of energy will be solved. And so the side effect by the big dams to the environment will not be an issue for a longer time. Let say 8 Magnitude EQ came Seismic Energy in Waves Radiated from Earthquake Source= 6.309573e+16 joule Total "Seismic Moment Energy" (MO): 1.233105e+21 Joules

Seismic Moment Radiated Energy
Power the USA for: 4,372.7 0.2 Days
Power New York City for: 42,965.3 2.2 Months

So the point is how to get this energy beneath the earth tectonic plates. If this idea will be reality, then the point of Earthquake prediction will not be the Mystery any more. By this we are not just Predicting Earthquake but we are not allowing Earthquake to create any destruction. For Detection of those fault lines which are active I am planning to configure a new optical fibre based Remote Sensors that is capable of sensing the energy and not only P waves and S waves. By detecting this energy our next task is to define the range in which this energy is being spread. As soon as we got to know the next task is to extract that energy from the earth.
