A major earthquake in Yellowstone occurred on June 30, 1975, registering a magnitude of 6.1. This earthquake was one of the largest recorded in the Yellowstone region and was part of a series of seismic events that prompted monitoring of the area. While it caused some damage, it did not result in significant injuries or fatalities. Since then, Yellowstone has experienced various smaller quakes, but none have matched the magnitude of the 1975 event.

What earthquakes that immediately follow a major earthquake shock?

Earthquakes that occur in the same area as a major earthquake are often referred to as aftershocks. Aftershocks can happen minutes to years after the mainshock and are caused by the readjustment of the earth's crust in response to the initial earthquake. These aftershocks can sometimes be just as powerful as the mainshock.
