Contrary to belief, earthquakes don't just occur on Earth. They can form on any planet that has a rocky surface and tectonic plates.
For instance, the moon can, and often does, have earthquakes, although they are more commonly referred to as lunarquakes. Mars can have earthquakes as well. Just because the title is earthquake, does not limit the event to just our planet. That is just what we Terrans (Earthlings, humans, etc.) call them.
