"Dave Blum - For those who are new to the whole Real-time Magnetosphere Simulation info, here is a quick introduction. The simulator tracks any activity on the earth’s magnetosphere on a daily basis and is recorded at certain time intervals throughout the day. The simulation has been down since Monday March 14, 2011 supposedly due to power outage. (Things that make you go HHHHMMMM) It finally came back online late Wednesday night March 29, 2011. To view any of the data on the magnetosphere click on the following link – Real-time Magnetosphere Simulation. If you go through any of the recent archived image dated links located at the bottom of the simulation page you will see that there is has been some major activity going on. I am also including several videos that I have found on the newest magnetosphere activity directly below. In these videos it talks about & shows how bad the magnetosphere has been getting hit in the last few days."

Of course there are differences. On a GPS, the direction points are taken from a grid of geostationary satellites, which means they are related to physical Earth. On a compass, the direction points are derived from the magnetic field of the planet, which is not the same as the physical points.

The guy on the first video is using a binder - which is a coil - to support the lid of the compass! LOL

Which means that the compass is being influenced by the metal coil. What a "scientific" experiment!

 Quoting: oeroe2911


OP the compasses are off not because the poles are moving but from the charged particles thrown out from the sun have a greater magnetic field or better said a stronger magnetic field than the north and south poles. For this reason a magnetic compass will momentarily try to follow the highly charged solar wind as it flows along the magnetosphere. Once the wind is passed the compass needle will track back to magnetic north and south.

The compass doesn't really "know" where the physical North is. It aligns to the planet's magnetic field. You have to previously know the declination for the place you are at in order to know where North is.

You are confusing things...

Of course you can measure them. Your compass is a testimony of that. With the help of the appropriate instrumentation, you can measure both the direction and intensity of the local magnetic field.

Re: XXXXX ALERT!!! COMPASS TRIPPING SLAP OUT!!! PASS THIS ON!!! XXXXX
Here's what I think. We have a powerful magnetic source approaching our planet in the form of our Sun's binary companion. It is exerting more and more influence over the core of the Earth as it approaches - the inverse-square law. This is changing our magnetic poles at an exponentially increasing rate - they are moving faster and faster.

THAT has caused our planet's mantle and crust to 'detach' somewhat from the molten and magnetic core, and now our geographic poles and equator are changing - we are wobbling on our axis. Watch the moon and check astronomy programs to see what it SHOULD look like in your location - you will see it doesn't match sometimes. And have you noticed people reporting a rumbling sound, from all around the world? I think that's the Earth's core grinding against the mantle and crust as the Earth goes through this change.

Now, once the brown dwarf leaves the area, taking its powerful magnetic field with it, we may AGAIN see this same sort of thing happen as the Earth re-orients itself to our traditional Sun's magnetic field.

What would you expect to see happen if our geographic axis is being altered? High winds with or without storms, GPS inaccuracies, compass aberrations, 'rogue waves' coming out of nowhere, abnormally high and low tides, a Moon that doesn't match what it used to look like for its phase, sinkholes in areas near our traditional equator, lithosphere tears near areas that weren't near our traditional equator but are now closer to our new equator. Well, guess what? We are seeing ALL of those things.

Make of this what you will.

Your compass needs to be as far from steel objects as you can possibly get them.

I have seen fields of steel pilling driven into the ground around 30' that would generate a magnetic field as far as 20' or so away. Just happened to have a compass out that day.

Dear Op thank you very much for this thread!!! there is also a thread out, I think
it is pinned, will check. It says that there was an extreme huge sun-flare coming
out from the sun yesterday and that it might be coming in on
earth around 31st of march but ruther on 01st of april. Omg.

Thread: BREAKING: 5 hours ago, came up with the biggest explosion ever seen in the Sun
