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.

Recent observations reveal that Earth's magnetic poles are gradually drifting ... on satellite observations suggests that the current shift is driven by 'blobs' of intense magnetic fields deep ...

Check your compass again — Earth’s north magnetic pole is moving toward Siberia ... by international groups of scientists. The shift will prompt airplane operators, mariners, drilling ...

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 ...

It's time to recalibrate the navigation systems on ships, airplanes, as the position of the magnetic North Pole is officially being changed, continuing its shift away from Canada and towards Siberia.

The World Magnetic Model predicts shifts in Earth's magnetic field using data from satellites like ESA’s Swarm mission. 'Billions of Suns eaten': NASA finds a cosmic monster that feeds itself ...

Unlike the geographic North Pole, which marks a fixed location, the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic ... WMM update follows a period of highly unusual activity ...

While shifting is not a rare occurrence, the pole is moving both faster and differently than it was before, raising questions about the planet's magnetic field. If the Earth's field is disrupted ...

When you think of the North Pole’s location ... of molten material in Earth’s interior. This, they say, has caused a titanic shift in the planet’s magnetic field. Essentially, the molten ...

This new model updates the location of magnetic north while also providing improved navigation for technologies reliant on Earth’s magnetic field. Updated every five years, scientists have ...
