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.

It's time to recalibrate the navigation systems on ships, airplanes, and (given the time of year) Santa's sleigh: the ...

Earth’s magnetic north pole is on the move—and in surprising ways ... This is especially critical for areas like the South ...

As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while ...

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

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the British Geological Survey announced the Magnetic North ...

And then there is the North Magnetic, or dip ... that's responsible for the change in the position of the pole is actually further south," Dr Livermore said. "There's also a timing issue.

NASA is keeping an eye on a massive “dent” in Earth’s magnetic field that could put an end to humanity as we know it.

Ferroelectrics are special materials with polarized positive and negative charges—like a magnet has north and south ...

If you bring a north pole and a south pole together, they will attract. Earth's core contains liquid iron which moves around. Iron is magnetic so the liquid iron causes Earth to have a magnetic field.

During them, there can be magnetic poles as far down as the equator, or even multiple north and south poles at different areas of the planet. The fields move around as a result of the liquid metal ...

They look like magnets. Yes look , they’ve got two poles; a north and a south. Even if the magnets aren’t touching, they can exert a force on each other. The opposite poles of a magnet attract ...
