North



Just some stuff I thought was interesting tonight. I will share the information and you can make up your own mind.

I was taught at a very young age how to read a compass. On a compass the needle points North. This is Magnetic North. Magnetic North and Geographic North do not match direction? How can this be?  Well... Go out any starry night and find the North star, a few hours later go out and the North star is in the same place and all the other stars have shifted around it. This shows that the Earth's axis still points towards the North star, as it has for centuries. This is Geographic North.

Just so we know, North is North...

Like the North Magnetic Pole, the North Geomagnetic Pole attracts the North pole of a bar magnet and so is in a physical sense actually a magnetic South pole.
... As of 2015 it was located at approximately 80.37 N 72.62 W over Ellesmere Island, Canada but is now drifting away from North America and toward Siberia.
