GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), twin satellites launched in March 2002, are making detailed measurements of Earth's gravity field which will lead to discoveries about gravity and Earth's natural systems. These discoveries could have far-reaching benefits to society and the world's population.
Gravity and Magnetics Research Online maps of gravity data.
A quick "Google" on pole movement should reveal the north pole is moving as we speak and getting weaker.Not demonstrably weaker; 10 percent weaker today than it was when a German mathematician first started keeping tabs on it in 1845 is all ...
The 'poles' move about a central point on a daily basis too, coinciding with the daily planetary orbit. There is also a slight drift The north and south magnetic poles wander over time; some 684 miles during the 20th century.
