Since 1831, when our magnetic north pole was first precisely located, it has drifted north-northwest by more than 1,100 ...

Magnetic records show the magnetic North Pole has been meandering about Canada from 1590 until 1990 when it suddenly accelerated gain speed over the past 30 years, going from less than 10 km (6.2 ...

As of now, "the magnetic South Pole has moved very little," said Brown to Newsweek, adding that it has covered "about the same distance in a century that the North Pole did in a decade." ...

British explorer Sir James Clark Ross discovered the magnetic north pole in 1831 in northern Canada, approximately 1,000 miles (1,609 kilometers) south of the true North Pole.

The magnetic north pole, where compass needles point, is about 1,200 miles south and is where geomagnetic field lines are vertical. Earth’s magnetic north is not static.

According to Brown, the South Pole is much more stable: "The magnetic South Pole has moved very little, covering about the same distance in a century that the north pole did in a decade." ...

Every five years, the location of the Magnetic North Pole is updated. In the latest model, it continues its shift toward Siberia, but it is slowing down.

The planet's magnetic North Pole, where compasses point, has been unexpectedly moving toward Russia. While shifting is not a rare occurrence, the pole is moving both faster and differently than it ...

Our planet’s magnetic field is similar to that of a bar magnet in that it has a north and south pole, but it is far less stable. The forces behind it are constantly changing, which means the ...
