minus-squarewebghost0101@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months agoI wonder what kinds of affects this do have? It would find it bizar if there are no natural phenomena connected to it.

minus-squareChainweasel@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 months agoNot likely, considering the last few times it happened it didn’t. This is the first time it’s happened since the 1980s, not the first time it’s happened.
minus-squareMonkderDritte@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months agoOh, much faster than pole reversal. Which is neither the first time but every 100’000 years or so. Or was it 300k?

Causing magnetic pole reversal?
