Earth, North Pole and Magnetic

World Magnetic Model by NOAA updates the North Magnetic Pole's position, crucial for accurate GPS and navigation systems.
Since the 1830s, the magnetic pole has traveled about 1,500 miles north and eastward in the Northern Hemisphere. In the 2000s, the movement accelerated to as fast as 50 kilometers per year.
