On June 25, 2026 at 21:33 UTC, a magnitude 2.6 shallow crustal earthquake struck 18 km NNW of Indian Springs, Nevada, at a depth of 5.7 km and coordinates 36.7165°, -115.7681°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 138 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 40 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
