The 7.8 magnitude earthquake that rocked Turkey and Syria looks similar to the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, scientists say.
Monday's 7.8 magnitude quake struck at about 4 a.m. local time. There have been hundreds of aftershocks, including a magnitude 7.5 temblor.
"A magnitude 7.8, the source of shaking is actually the entire fault line," Elliott said."The fault rupture in this case was something like 200 km or more long."
