ID+Eathquake+1

This is the first earthquake that I tested.

Time: 3:09--02/11/05 Location: Lat_ -30.3900 --Lon_-178.1690 Distance: 10591 kilometers Time Detected: approx. 4:00--02/11/05 The duration between its inception and its detection at LIGO was approximately 50 minutes. which is about 45 min

Here is a map of the distance from the known place the tremor occured and the LIGO Data Base.

Because the earthquake was 6581 miles (10591 km) away, and because the vibration waves originated inland which causes them to travel slower, it took about roughly 45 minutes for the earthquake to be detected by LIGO censors
