This segment of the San Andreas Fault, in Palmdale, California, lies about 60 miles (100 km) northwest of Los Angeles. The image was captured from the Space Shuttle Endeavor on Feb. 11, 2000.

But the San Andreas Fault has about 150 miles (241 km) of slip between either side, meaning that volcanic rocks in Pinnacles National Park match those much farther south, in Los Angeles County.

As such, recent predictions limit the possible maximum earthquake magnitude along the San Andreas fault system to 8.0, although with a 7 percent probability estimate that such an event could occur ...
