Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.
the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic field, which is in constant motion. Over the past few decades, magnetic north’s movement has been unprecedented — it ...
The magnetic North Pole is a point through which Earth's magnetic field converges and it continues changing according to the planet's change in its molten core. In 1831, a pole was identified in ...
Earth’s magnetic north pole is on the move—and in surprising ways. With the release of the World Magnetic Model 2025, scientists reveal new details about its unpredictable journey and why it has ...
While the geographical North Pole stays fixed in place (at the very summit of the Earth's rotational axis), the WMM pinpoints the magnetic North Pole – where Earth's magnetic field points straight ...
distinct from the geographic North Pole, is the point where Earth’s magnetic field lines converge. NASA via Rawpixel For decades, Earth’s magnetic north pole has been slowly drifting across the Arctic ...
The magnetic north pole has shifted over 400 km from Canada towards Russia in the past century due to changes in Earth's molten core. Scientists use the World Magnetic Model to monitor this ...
Check your compass again — Earth’s north magnetic pole is moving toward Siberia. Since at least the early 19th century, Earth’s north magnetic pole has been situated in the Canadian Arctic ...
