Earth’s magnetic north pole is on the move, and scientists just updated its position
“The way the model is built, our forecast is mostly an extrapolation given our current knowledge of the Earth’s magnetic field.” The scientists released two models on December 17: the ...
Earth’s north magnetic pole is on the move again
Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.
