pisoiu said:The magnetic poles of the Earth are changing right now. Taking into consideration all known history of Earth (regarding this matter, of course), the magnetic poles are changing periodically, and the average calculated period between two inversions is around 200.000 years. Guess what, the last change was 700.000 years ago. A magnetic poles inversion begins with a chaotic and strange behavior of all magnetic field, and first steps are a decreasing in the fiend intensity. Considering the measurements done over last approx. 300 years, the field intensity dropped with 10%. When the process of inversion is at its peak, more than two magnetic poles, perhaps over 6 can walk around the surface of Earths, and a aurora borealis seen over the Paris for example, may not be such an unusual event. The whole inversion process appears to take approx. 1000 years.
