Though occurring in space, the effects of a spacequake can reach the surface of the Earth in the form of electromagnetic reverberations. The total energy in a spacequake can rival that of a magnitude 5 or 6 earthquake. [1] Spacequakes are measured using a magnetometer and displayed with a magnetogram. [1]
