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 .
No, an object not moving relative to Earth is not a blue shifted object. With no relative motion, an object will not be subject to Doppler effect and will not red or blue shift. For an object to be blue shifted, the distance between the object and Earth must be decreasing. The object must be closing on Earth or vice versa.
The Greek astronomer Hipparchus is credited with first estimating Earth's precession around 127-146 B.C. He noticed that the position of the stars shifted over time, indicating a slow wobble in Earth's axis.
If a galaxy is moving towards the Earth, its spectrum will be blueshifted. This means that the wavelengths of its emitted light are compressed, resulting in a shift towards the blue end of the spectrum.

A Fault??
If you were on a plant looking into the stars the sun would be blue shifted. When looking up at the sky we see the sun moving towards us making it look smaller.
we do not know the cause
No. Because such a combination can never exist.
nothing catastrophic.AnswerIncreases in skin cancers due to ozone shifts.
Pangaea was located on Earth during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras, around 300 million years ago. It was a supercontinent that existed before the tectonic plates shifted to form the current continents.

Yes they do depending on which type of faultline they're on or near. There are four types of faults: Normal fault, where one side of the faultline is descending into the Earth and rubs against the other side as it falls due to gravity. Reverse fault, essentially the reverse of the Normal fault; where one side is raised up along the faultline. Transcurrent(strike-slip) fault, where one side scrapes horizontally against the other side as the plates move (e.g. the San Andreas fault). Thrust fault, where one side of the faultline thrusts up onto the other side of the faultline.
If a star is moving toward Earth, it will experience a redshift in its light spectrum due to the Doppler effect. This means that the wavelengths of light will be stretched and appear more red. This effect allows astronomers to measure the speed and direction of a star's movement.
