Yes, it moved 2 inches. Days are now 4.88 millionth of a second shorter.
What? No...the earths axis has been tilted for hundreds of millions if not billions of years. If your question is: Did the earthquake in Chile cause a variation in the tilt of the earth's axis? Then the answer is yes, very slightly, but noticeable.
The Earth's axis was not tilted during the Haiti Earthquake. The earthquake occurred due to the movement of tectonic plates along a fault line beneath the Earth's surface, causing the ground to shake. This movement did not affect the tilt of the Earth's axis.
shifted earth's axis about 10 meters.
The 2011 Japan earthquake caused the Earth to shift on its axis by about 17 centimeters (6.5 inches). This shift resulted in a slight increase in the Earth's rotation speed, shortening the length of a day by a few microseconds.
It is unlikely that a single earthquake, even a significant one in Japan, would cause a noticeable change in the Earth's axis. Earth's axis can shift over long periods due to complex factors such as glacial melting and crustal movement, but not typically from a single seismic event.
It is not a matter of belief. It has been scientifically measured that the Chilean earthquake caused the Earth's axis to shift approximately two inches.
Yes, the earth is moving faster, the day is shorter, and the axis wobbles differently due to a three inch [8 centimeter] shift if National Aeronautics and Space Administration scientist Richard Gross is correct in his analyses of the aftermath of the Chilean earthquake of February 27, 2010.

The Earth's AXIS changed 10cm after the tragic earthquake
The Earth's axis was not tilted during the Haiti Earthquake. The earthquake occurred due to the movement of tectonic plates along a fault line beneath the Earth's surface, causing the ground to shake. This movement did not affect the tilt of the Earth's axis.
It can change the Axis of the Earth, effect emotions of people world wide.
If you mean the Axis of the Earth, yes it did. By 6 degrees.
shifted earth's axis about 10 meters.

The earthquake shifted Eastern Japan towards North America by about 13 feet . The quake also shifted the earth's axis by 6.5 inches .
The degree of tilt to the Earth caused by the Japanese earthquake in 2011 was estimated to be about 25 centimeters (10 inches). This tilt led to a shift in the Earth's axis by about 10 cm (4 inches), which shortened the length of a day by around 1.8 microseconds.
