Did the Moon Caused the Earthquake Near Japan?

Be warned that this is just assumption made up after a few days ago I read an article right over here about the term 'Supermoon'. To me it seems like a baseless assumptions at first but come to think of it, the distance might actually have something to do with the earthquake. Undeniably the Pacific Ring of Fire did play a major role in the recent event too.

Peek-a-Boo

Of course I'm not saying that all catastrophic disaster or earthquake is caused by the Moon getting too close to Earth which eventually will collide and everyone will turned into barbecue meat and aliens will soon find us delicious. Save that for doomsday. What I'm trying to imply here is by relating pass earthquake which I found might have link to the Moon being too close. 


Before we head to Japan, let us go way back in history to 22 May 1960, the year where the largest earthquake in history ever struck mankind at 9.5, so far (we never know what Kim Jong-Il's hobby of underground nuking will do), the Moon was just 358351 km away on 12 May and 357324 km away from us on 10 Jun. There's a calculator for the distance here. That's 18 days from Jun and 10 days from May. 

Not sure what happened to the person who took this picture in Indonesia

Probably this could be a coincidence, but let's check out the 9.2 Richter scale Indian Ocean earthquake on December 26, 2004. The moon was just 357985 km away from us, yet again at quite a close range. Still not enough? What about the  Haiti Earthquake January 12 and the Chilean Earthquake on February 27, both in 2010. Miss Moon was pretty damn close to us on January 30 at a distance of 356592 km and  357831 km away on February 27. 

Damn it's massive!


And now onwards to Japan, at a distance of 356577 km on May 19 (8 days way from he quake), the closest ever the Moon coming to Earth in 19 years, all hell just broke loose. Luckily for the Japanese, they have God-given skill in civil engineering and since they know what's gonna hit them, an emergency plan is already been planned since like decades ago. I'm pretty sure they can minimize the lost drastically but for sure the lost is definitely still unbearable and will be a international disaster.

Where are the huge airliner? They just vanished without refueling?



I tried to Google more about the relation between the distance and earthquake but nothing factual came up and only rebuttals on the assumption from Mr. Sun. Apparently he got jealous because his solar flares can't spark up mayhem on Earth, only our mobile phones and making us drench in biologically salty water. Too bad, better luck next time.



Whether this assumption is true or otherwise, lets realize that we have a responsibility towards mother nature and try not piss her off too much. I'm talking about you, Kim Jong-Il. And China and America. You're up next India.



Anyways, let us take a moment of silence and pray for victims of the devastating earthquake in Japan that they will return to their loved ones soon. Also to the people in countries which the tsunami will eventually reach them soon, or not, better prepare yourselves and pray it doesn't come: Hawaii, Australia, Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, New Zealand, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru and Chile.
