VOICED : Buscar el origen de los sismos

A team of seismologists has embarked on a mission to drill into the Earth's crust off the coast of Japan to study the origins of earthquakes. Equipped with advanced technology, they aim to reach depths of 7,000 meters. The mission focuses on the South Sea fault, where intense geological activity could lead to significant earthquakes. The research aims to improve earthquake prediction and prevention. The team plans to drill 3,600 meters this year and 5,200 meters next year, as Japan experiences 20% of the world's major earthquakes.
