Can solar panels survive an earthquake?

  Probably at least as well as the Fukushima reactors did.

    To be fair, the reactors survived the earthquake just fine, as well as the tsunami afterward. The problem is that the diesel generators that were supposed to provide backup power to the cooling systems got swamped, basically making meltdown inevitable with the design of the reactor.
