We need Doc Brown to jump in his Delorean, hit 88mph, and get the Poles back in line.
And yes, I know there are several here that will jump in and say that 88mph is not safe.
no need to call doc....just look for yourself...happens all the time....scientists know it happens....how aboot youse?

Scientists understand that Earth's magnetic field has flipped its polarity many times over the millennia. In other words, if you were alive about 800,000 years ago, and facing what we call north with a magnetic compass in your hand, the needle would point to 'south.'

Reversals are the rule, not the exception. Earth has settled in the last 20 million years into a pattern of a pole reversal about every 200,000 to 300,000 years, although it has been more than twice that long since the last reversal. A reversal happens over hundreds or thousands of years, and it is not exactly a clean back flip. Magnetic fields morph and push and pull at one another, with multiple poles emerging at odd latitudes throughout the process.
