Emergency Post - Earth's Pole Shifting

[project dragon]

What they see mimics the real Earth: The magnetic field waxes and wanes, poles drift and, occasionally, flip. Change is normal, they've learned. And no wonder. The source of the field, the outer core, is itself seething, swirling, turbulent. "It's chaotic down there," notes Glatzmaier. The changes we detect on our planet's surface are a sign of that inner chaos.

They've also learned what happens during a magnetic flip. Reversals take a few thousand years to complete, and during that time--contrary to popular belief--the magnetic field does not vanish. "It just gets more complicated," says Glatzmaier. Magnetic lines of force near Earth's surface become twisted and tangled, and magnetic poles pop up in unaccustomed places. A south magnetic pole might emerge over Africa, for instance, or a north pole over Tahiti. Weird. But it's still a planetary magnetic field, and it still protects us from space radiation and solar storms.

This seems like a good place to post a movie poster from some movie that has done this- The CORE?

I forget but oh well someone else will be a tryhard.

It has never been a question about "when", I only confirmed that it exist. The shifting of poles is real, whether it happens in your lifetime or not, and it has shifted a lot of times through the time. It doesn't cease to exist because some redneck haven't experienced himself. Does it mean that the ice age is some kind of fiction because you never experienced it?

All the talk about politics prolly made you think that you actually got brains? Still a dumb yank as usual.

oh really? the poles have shifted, well excuse me while i go David Hume on your ass. have you seen it happen? did you observe it? the poles switched before your eyes? your senses perceived this? OH THEY DIDN'T?

well then how do you know it happened? all you know are liklihoods and tendencies. it is likely that they switched multiple times, but you don't know shit about shit.

Layers of lava sediments which shows different magnetic directions and magnetic shifting through time. It's literally written in stone.

Horrible baiting, and it doesn't change the fact that kthx is a dumb narrow minded retard.

i would expect nothing less than the new north pole to be over Columbus, OH.

yay tourism!!!!!!!!!!!!

fuck all this hiking to the middle of nowhere, take a city bus and you'd be there in a jiffy

[Ilya]

how'd it get there?

how'd the moon get there?

how'd it get there?

You know what else was written in stone? Fake global warming, this is just something that literally no people actually care about and is just starting to get popular as a conspiracy theory thanks to flocks of birds dying randomly and people blaming it on their natural compasses being thrown off by shifting or moving poles. Anyways, I am sure there are plenty of other explanations to lava sediments in different magnetic directions, like earth is a huge etchasketch and god was doodling one day, and that pretty soon hes going to shake it and start fresh. Thats my personal favorite.

lol is this guy trying to argue that earths magnetic field doesnt come from moving liquid metal

[megaman89]

ratty is right, it is written in stone...literally

whether or not it's "written in stone" you still don't know that it happened, and neither does science. if you really think that people who understand science and the philosophy behind it say that they know 100% that the poles shifted, then they are ignorant and don't understand their discipline. all you can know are tendencies, and while the indications of such things as evolution and the shifting of poles are around 99% or higher, you still don't know with any certainty. as i said earlier, echoing david hume, you don't know shit unless YOU perceived it; and i am pretty sure the poles haven't switched in my lifetime.

Oh yah. I remember reading about that 'stone' thing. Apparently the magnetic elements within molten lava line up with magnetic north as they cool off and I read that a bunch of scientists took note of this in multiple locations around the world and said something that no two places pointed in the same direction which hinted at major shifts in the poles or even a total reversals of poles.

I just never or don't recall ever seeing anything that said what would happen if tectonic plates started shifting and moving and earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, tsunamis, land slides, avalanches, glaciers and any other form of massive movements of earth's crust could cause these 'stones' to point in another direction making the evidence of pole shifts 'written in stone' inconclusive... in my opinion. (LOL)

after so many years i can finally read your sig w/o a problem magi.

happy day

I can read your sig very easily with no problem.

Lets get back on track with conspiracy theories.
