North Magnetic Pole Moving East Due to Core Flux
December 26th, 2009Via: National Geographic:
Earth’s north magnetic pole is racing toward Russia at almost 40 miles (64 kilometers) a year due to magnetic changes in the planet’s core, new research says.
The core is too deep for scientists to directly detect its magnetic field. But researchers can infer the field’s movements by tracking how Earth’s magnetic field has been changing at the surface and in space.
Now, newly analyzed data suggest that there’s a region of rapidly changing magnetism on the core’s surface, possibly being created by a mysterious “plume” of magnetism arising from deeper in the core.
And it’s this region that could be pulling the magnetic pole away from its long-time location in northern Canada, said Arnaud Chulliat, a geophysicist at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris in France.
Finding North
Magnetic north, which is the place where compass needles actually point, is near but not exactly in the same place as the geographic North Pole. Right now, magnetic north is close to Canada’s Ellesmere Island.
Navigators have used magnetic north for centuries to orient themselves when they’re far from recognizable landmarks.
Although global positioning systems have largely replaced such traditional techniques, many people still find compasses useful for getting around underwater and underground where GPS satellites can’t communicate.
The magnetic north pole had moved little from the time scientists first located it in 1831. Then in 1904, the pole began shifting northeastward at a steady pace of about 9 miles (15 kilometers) a year.
In 1989 it sped up again, and in 2007 scientists confirmed that the pole is now galloping toward Siberia at 34 to 37 miles (55 to 60 kilometers) a year.
Does anyone know more about this? Several years ago Nova did a special about the magnetic core showing a dramatic decrease in the magnetic field over thousands and hundreds of years. Evidence from magnetism caught in previously molten rock was leading them to believe it would be completely gone within a couple hundred years or less and could lead to a flip in polarities. This could be more catastrophic to the environment then the worst global warming predictions.
This is not to be confused with the movie “The Core” which was so eye-bleedingly awful and disinformative I cried. As someone said, “…the year’s funniest non-comedy.”
This may be evidence that the POLE SHIFT will really take place as predicted by many ‘fringe’ thinkers/researchers and ET contactees.
This Pole realignment may also have to do with the five ELEs that have taken place throughout our history.
One thing is for sure, Dan Sherman in his book talks about how he and many others who were trained as remote viewers by the army, were being prepared to be the eyes and ears for when ‘when the grid goes down’ in the near future…
And when the pole shift really starts occurring, the global grid WILL go down.
Makes sense why THEY are furiously building underground computer bunkers the world over 😉
ohh, and it might also be what the change in epochs signaled by 2012 mayan long count calendar refers to.
