The Great Tohoku Earthquake - according to the USGS
The USGS has been extremely busy. They've put together a website and poster to explain the what, where and when of "The Great Tohoku Earthquake", which we know now is considered a 9.0 instead of previously an 8.9 (US) or 8.8 (Japan). A must-have for kids and teachers and those fascinated or otherwise interested in science.
