No, that's not an earthquake. The sound boom caused by SpaceX cargo ships raked Saturday night in Los Angeles. The vast residents of the area reported a loud boom and a rattle.
According to an article on Elon Musk's Space Company X, the rattle originates from a Space Dragon capsule that brings the atmosphere back into the atmosphere. .
"The dragon will also announce its arrival before a brief sound boom before the Pacific splashes," SpaceX reported for about an hour. The account says the capsule is scheduled to enter around 10:44 p.m.
According to NASA, the unsold spacecraft has transported about 6,700 pounds of crew supplies, equipment and other resources to the International Space Station. It evacuated from the International Space Station at around 9:05 a.m. Friday and then began its journey back to the California coast.
On social media, local residents vented fear, disgust and spread the glee chorus.
Tiktok user @limeysublime posted a video of her bright, comet-like objects passing through the night sky over Santa Monica, “It’s so loud.”
“I’m in Corona and I’m starting to overvent myself,” user Felix Jordan wrote in the comments. “(i) think it’s my last day on Earth.”
Residents from Irvine and Fresno to Reddit and Tiktok have a sensation and rattle around 10:45 pm

When SpaceX cargo ships started the night sky, Los Angeles heard a boom in Los Angeles.
Some people think it's an earthquake, others are explosions, while others are an episode of the TV series Andor, whose tablets are "Andor" or an intruder on the roof.
"I thought my fish tank exploded," said Trent McGee of Orange, 38. He lay in bed watching "Fris Brell on vacation" when he felt prosperous.
In a hurry to see his 360-gallon aquarium intact, his porcupine fish and other outsiders were unharmed, he checked Reddit to find out where the noise came from.
“I wish I knew the boom of sound was coming because I would go out for a better experience,” he said.
Sonic Boom has become the source of shock for people living near the Vandenberg Space Force in Santa Barbara County, where SpaceX and U.S. Space Force officials acknowledge that their rocket launches and landings are causing conventional rattles.
“We are awakened a few times a week,” said Brooke Heflin, 37, of Camarillo. "Just in deep sleep, it's like a big boom - the walls shaking, the windows shaking, the dogs start barking. Basically, you wake up and explode."
Last year, military officials declined calls for a reduction in the boom of the sound from SpaceX rockets in the region, which has been increasing in frequency. Musk's agent said it plans to launch more than 90 rockets from the base by 2026.
"When you wake up late at night, your heart starts playing - Oh my god, what is this?" Hevlin said. "And then your mind finally became clear: it's SpaceX again. Then you have to go back to sleep."
