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. Like an anchorless buoy ...

Sometimes the magnetic North Pole and South Pole do switch places. So how does the shifting of these fields differ from the flip? To put it plainly, the shifting happens over the course of ...

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." ...
