Movement of Earth's Magnetic Pole Accelerating
From an AstroBio article
And the following citing from the original Oregon State releaseAfter some 400 years of relative stability, Earth's North Magnetic Pole has moved nearly 1,100 kilometers out into the Arctic Ocean during the last century and at its present rate could move from northern Canada to Siberia within the next half-century.
Not necessarily... ? Well, that's a relief.The surprisingly rapid movement of the magnetic pole doesn't necessarily mean that our planet is going through a large-scale change that would result in the reversal of the Earth's magnetic field.
