From Includipedia, the inclusionist encyclopedia

The 2005 Banda Sea earthquake was an earthquake that occurred in the Banda Sea region, approximately 500 km from East Timor on March 2, 2005. Residents of Darwin felt the impact, despite the epicenter being located approximately 140 km away. Reports vary about the strength, with early estimates ranging from 7.2 to 7.5 on the Richter scale. This earthquake, which occurred a few months after the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and its associated tsunami, sparked fears of another tsunami on the already ravaged coasts of Indonesia, however this did not happen.
