Mw 6.5 Nicobar Islands, India Region

updated 20 February 2025

report

On 8 November 2015 a strong earthquake occurred at Nicobar Islands, India Region at a depth of 23 km. The seismic event occurred at 16:47:03 UTC and had an estimated moment magnitude (Mw) 6.5.

The estimated primary trigger of this seismic event is a convergence of planetary and lunar geometry on 5-6 November 2015.

Opposite lunar conjunctions occurred with Jupiter and Neptune within 24 hours on 5-6 November when Jupiter, the Sun and Neptune reached their conjunction, followed by Mercury, the Sun and Uranus and also Venus, Mercury and Saturn. In addition, a pair of right angle planetary geometry with Mercury, Venus and Neptune also converged on 5-6 November. It resulted in a tight convergence of planetary and lunar geometry on these two days. A series of strong earthquakes occurred from 7 to 9 November, including very strong aftershocks at Coquimbo, Chile.
