Philippa RossHOST
Norway, yes, and the Northern Lights.
Philippa RossHOST
I'd love to go because my ancestor discovered the North Magnetic Pole.
Philippa RossHOST
I've been to Antarctica twice, well, sea region, but it's my ambition to actually get to the North Pole.
Philippa RossHOST
And 2031 is the 200th anniversary since he discovered it.
Sheridan FaulkenberryHOST
I'm just thinking about this.
Sheridan FaulkenberryHOST
The North Magnetic Pole and the actual, like, true North Pole, those are offset here on Earth.
Sheridan FaulkenberryHOST
Does that kind of c- serve as evidence against the dynamo theory?
Spike PsarrisGUEST
No, it ...
Benjamin BosterHOST
They also arise from intrinsic magnetic dipoles arising from quantum mechanical spin.
Benjamin BosterHOST
All known magnets are dipoles, meaning that they have a north and south pole, so named as the Earth's magnetic field applies a force to point a magnet's poles towards areas near the Earth's respective North Pole and South Pole, specifically the North Magnetic Pole and South Magnetic Pole.
Benjamin BosterHOST
A magnet's North Pole is attracted to another magnet's South Pole.
Benjamin BosterHOST
A magnetic field contains energy, and physical systems move toward configurations with lower energy.
David HindleHOST

David HindleHOST
I've just gotta ask 'cause I was, I was watching your videos and, and reading about the geographic North Pole and the magnetic North Pole, and I was like, "I have no idea what the difference is," so I looked it up and I think I'm...
David HindleHOST
Is my reading right that now the magnetic North Pole is almost impossible to get to 'cause it's completely free-floating? Is that, is that right? 'Cause I know you've been there, but is that what it's done?
Mark WoodGUEST
Yeah, so I mean, there's the...
Mark WoodGUEST
If you read a book ca- by Fergus Fle- Fleming called Ninety Degrees North, it, uh, the very first paragraph says that there are five North Poles.
Debbi DachingerHOST
Typically, it would be six.
Debbi DachingerHOST
So what does that mean for us? The North Magnetic Pole moving basically from Canada to Siberia at such an incredible rate.
Judi WeaverGUEST
And this makes perfect sense, does it not? Have you not all been feeling the intensity and the change and the shifts that have been taking place magnetically, etherically, energetically, certainly that are impacting and influencing each of you? And this, when the lines are building, being moved, but it is completely in the same alignment with that of Mother Earth going through her expansiveness process.
Judi WeaverGUEST
And it's not just a process, it is a unilateral unfolding that's all of a blending of the exact same space and place at the same time.
Daven HiskeyHOST
These were mainly used for transporting personnel, who traveled in relative comfort aboard wooden sled-mounted shelters called wagons.
Daven HiskeyHOST
As magnetic compasses were useless so close to the North Magnetic Pole, the swains followed a trail of marker flags laid out in advance.
Daven HiskeyHOST
This path followed a twisting, turning path chosen to avoid deep crevices and featured survival cabins and supply caches every 50 kilometers in case one of the swains broke down en route.
Daven HiskeyHOST
Once on site, personnel lived on the surface in insulated portable shelters called Jamesway huts until the underground base was completed.
Chris HaslerHOST
We've all used a compass and we know that the magnet points to the north.
Chris HaslerHOST
It doesn't exactly point to the north pole itself but to a point called the north magnetic pole and this wanders and drifts over time as it is a naturally occurring phenomenon subject to a number of physical factors.
Chris HaslerHOST
Where there is a north magnetic pole, there is also a south magnetic pole, but those poles haven't always pointed the way that they do today.
Chris HaslerHOST
Over deep time, the Earth's magnetic field has flipped again and again, so that what we call magnetic north ends up near the geographic south pole and vice versa.
Chris HaslerHOST
Imagine the chaos in school classrooms if overnight every compass needle suddenly pointed the opposite way.
Chris HaslerHOST
Over the last few million years, these reversals have happened many times, on average every few hundred thousand years, though the timing is irregular.
Chris HaslerHOST
That irregular pattern is exactly what lets researchers use paleomagnetism to date sites like Yanmo by matching the recorded flips in the rocks to a global time scale of magnetic reversals.
Chris HaslerHOST
Certain rocks actually have a desire to face the North Magnetic Pole when they are geologically trapped.
Chris RamseyGUEST
Mm
Julie RamseyGUEST
... to drive from a magnetic North Pole all the way to the geographic South Pole in Antarctica.
speaker_2NARRATOR
Hello, and welcome to the Electric and Eclectic podcast show, with Roger Atkins, and some truly super smart and amazingly interesting guests.
Chris RamseyGUEST
Discovering hydro vehicles so long ago, and discovering I have this passion for driving, I have this, I had this, this weird obsession, this weird desire to kind of, that challenge.
Julie RamseyGUEST
Well, for those of you that don't know, Pole to Pole is, um, the first car ever, and whether it be petrol, diesel, electric, first car ever-
Chris RamseyGUEST
Mm
Julie RamseyGUEST
... to drive from a magnetic North Pole all the way to the geographic South Pole in Antarctica.
Julie RamseyGUEST
Three continents, over 14 countries, over, near excess 18,000 miles, and, uh, we did it in one car, and we're the crazy couple that- [laughs]
Carla CockrumHOST
Right.
John SpencerHOST
A compass points towards Magnetic North.
John SpencerHOST
Yes.
John SpencerHOST
But it's important to know that magnetic north is not geographic north pole.
Carla CockrumHOST
Really?
John SpencerHOST
Yeah.
Carla CockrumHOST
But in the general direction?
John SpencerHOST
Good, close general direction.
