Earth’s magnetic pole is on the move, fast. And we don’t know why

Earth’s magnetic field is what allows us to exist. It deflects harmful radiation. It keeps our water and atmosphere in place. But now it’s acting up — and nobody knows why. Planet Earth is alive. Deep beneath its skin, its life blood — rivers of molten iron — pulse around its core. And this mobile iron is what generates the magnetic field that causes auroras — and keeps us alive.

But, according to the science journal Nature, something strange is going on deep down below.

It’s causing the magnetic North Pole to ‘skitter’ away from Canada, towards Siberia.

“The magnetic pole is moving so quickly that it has forced the world’s geomagnetism experts into a rare move,” Nature reports...

Yup, first I read the Inuit had noticed something was amiss because seasonally when they slaughtered seals they did so when sunrise was at a specific point between two mountains (sort of their calendar). They noticed sunrise was deviating to the right over time until eventually it had shifted dramatically. Then airplanes have to re-set their compass to true north daily as it shifts a bit daily, so over time I figure the equator will be at the North Pole and generations from now archaeologists will be marveling at tropical wildlife/plants being dug out of the ice at the new north pole, like they presently do digging out wooly mammoths at the north pole and tropical foliage preserved in ice out of the north pole now. Hope it is a long slow process and we don’t go hurtling there at warp speed in the future.

Mother Earth is fed up with humans and is hitting the reset button.

The molten center of the Earth, which generates the magnetic field, is not all solid. It moves around. Ergo, .....

They aren’t stealing it. It was part of the deal made with Russia in order to elect Trump. He gave them the North Pole, Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, and Obama’s birth certificate in exchange for their help on the election. The Russians gave all their super delegates to Hillary, tons of vodka to Hillary and a new house to Bernie. They also threw in their assistance to elect a complete moron named accidental Cotex from the Bronx. So obvious to us all.

Short (3 minute) video on pole shift from Suspicious 0bservers. Things are moving faster and the models are having to be updated.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLK3VbvIi0w

Fast Facts from Suspicious 0bservers.

1) The south pole has already left Antarctica and the north pole is racing across the arctic ocean.

2) “Earth’s magnetic poles are getting ready to flip.” -Mission Manager, SWARM/ESA

3) The magnetic field began weakening in 1600.

4) The magnetic field weakened 10% from the 1800s to 2000.

5) Earth’s magnetic field was weakening 5% per century, but now is weakening 5% per decade.

6) As of 2014 the magnetic field is continuing to weaken rapidly.

7) Magnetic reversals can occur in less than 100 years.

8) Magnetic reversals lead to extinction events.

9) Magnetic reversals may cause biblical floods.

Well as it gets closer to the geographic NP magnetic compasses should be more accurate as long as the magnetic force doesn’t diminish too much.

Trump is cutting a deal with Putin to take control of the magnetic field in 2020 right after his reelection.

To Liberals, this is NOT Trump’s fault. Like Global Warming, it is normal, but I bet you’ll think that if you tax us, you can solve it. Just like Global Warming, you can’t tax something normal in nature to ‘fix’ it.

I suppose the correction comes with the other tables downloaded from the satellites. GPS is continuously updated.

“as it gets closer to the geographic NP magnetic compasses should be more accurate”

True. Maps and software programs need to get their declination angles updated as it moves.

It is just creeping by the Geographic NP. Just about its nearest point as it passes over toward the Siberian side. The dot in the center of the circles designates Geographic NP.

Yup. Old Planet Earth doesn’t give fig about us or anything living on it. It does what it does. And I’d be more concerned about we humans and what we do to each other, at least we have some control over that. Can’’t control the planet. Any more then we can control the climate, what nonsense that is. And I would be very more concerned about some big hunk of iron slamming into us, that has happened, does happen and will happen again.

“The pole is moving towards Siberia. The Russians are stealing it. Somebody tell Mueller quick.”

Dang. Did Trump give the Russians the North Pole? That has to be worth another two years of investigation.

OH, simple really.
Chuck Norris said he was going to go to the NOrth pole
and now it’s trying to get away.

They’ll just show us their Uranium One deal and say, “Read fine print and talk to Mrs. Clinton!”
