Summary:

On the morning of April 26, 1973, at 10:27, Hawaiian Standard Time, residents throughout the Hawaiian Islands were disturbed by an earthquake. Damage amounting to 6 million dollars occurred on the island of Hawaii; people rushed out of buildings in Honolulu, 300 km from the epicenter; and tremors were felt on the island of Kauai, the farthest inhabited island from the epicenter. Although analysis and interpretations are only partially completed, this is a preliminary report of data obtained from recordings on seismographs in Hawaii and other parts of the world.
