"China's Gansu Earthquake: Ominous Signal, Sub-Zero Rescues, and Over 100 Lives Lost"

Chinese scientists successfully forecasted a 6.2 magnitude earthquake in Gansu using text alerts from multiple sensors with anomalous readings, although they couldn't pinpoint the exact location. By monitoring Earth's gravitational field, researchers in Shaanxi identified anomalies as earthquake indicators and calculated a high probability of the Gansu earthquake within three to five days. The China Earthquake Early Warning Network efficiently sent alerts within 30 seconds, with some areas receiving alerts in just 12 seconds, demonstrating the system's effectiveness.
