British explorer Sir James Clark Ross discovered the magnetic north pole in 1831 in northern Canada, approximately 1,000 miles (1,609 kilometers) south of the true North Pole.

The north magnetic pole, which has been used for navigation for centuries, is shifting east - and it's shifting fast. Experts who map these magnetic fields are rushing to keep up as it heads away ...

Earth's north magnetic pole — which guides many of the world’s navigation systems, including Google Maps — has drifted so fast that authorities have had to officially redefine its location.

In the recent past, the magnetic North Pole has moved 34 miles a year toward Russia. Just a half-century ago, the magnetic North Pole was wandering about 7 miles each year. Movement of Earth's ...

WASHINGTON — True north isn't quite where it used to be. Earth's north magnetic pole has been drifting so fast in the last few decades that scientists that past estimates are no longer accurate ...

However, the North Magnetic Pole has actually been moving gradually since away from the location it was first documented back in the 1830s. Now, scientists say we may finally understand why it’s ...
