Scientists have discovered earth’s north magnetic pole is wandering about 55 kilometers per year.
The north pole has been moving so fast that scientists on Monday released an update of where true north really was, nearly a year ahead of schedule.
It crossed the international date line at the end of 2017, it’s leaving the Canadian Arctic on its way to Siberia. The shifting magnetic pole is a problem for compasses. Planes and boats rely on magnetic north usually as backup navigation.
