The subject matter of the present disclosure is a cosmic ray detector that comprises a digital part and an analog part. The analog part includes a top scintillator coupled with a first silicon photomultiplier and a bottom scintillator coupled with a second silicon photomultiplier. The second subject matter of the present disclosure is a method for detecting cosmic rays executed using the cosmic ray detector of the disclosed embodiments. The third subject matter of the present disclosure is a system for facilitating earthquake prediction by detecting cosmic rays. The system comprises a processing device, a communication device, and a storage device. The communication device is configured for receiving a plurality of tectonic information from a plurality of cosmic ray detectors. The fourth subject matter of the present disclosure is a method for facilitating earthquake prediction by detecting cosmic rays executed using the system of present disclosure.
