Rare "boomerang" earthquake detected under the Atlantic Ocean for the first time

For years, scientists have been attempting to track an extremely rare "boomerang" earthquake. Now, they've recorded one in the ocean for the first time — and it's even more bizarre than they expected.

Scientists aren't exactly sure how this occurred, but they believe the first phase somehow triggered its more aggressive counterpart.

Only a handful of boomerang earthquakes have ever been recorded — the phenomenon has mostly been theoretical, until now.
