The Navy confirmed it was detonating underwater explosives to test a new ship's ability to withstand shock.
Saturday’s undersea “earthquake” off northeast Florida actually was the Navy doing an experimental explosion, said John Bellini with the U.S. Geological Survey in Colorado.
The shock from the 10,000-pound explosive caused a minor earth tremor, registering 3.7 magnitude on a Geological Survey seismometer at Disney World, Orlando.
