    Seismic waves are waves that travel through the Earth or along its surface, and are studied to learn about the Earth's interior. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves, which travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface. Body waves are further divided into P waves and S waves, which have different characteristics like speed and ability to travel through solids or liquids.
