He was a 19th century scientist who enabled exploration by inventing a compass that measured magnetic dip at sea in high latitudes, a compass that ultimately guided the expedition that discovered ...

Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.

Check your compass again – Earth’s north magnetic pole is moving toward Siberia. Since at least the early 19th century, Earth’s north magnetic pole has been situated in the Canadian Arctic ...

Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.

New research uncovers how birds navigate using Earth's magnetic inclination and declination, redefining migration science.

The magnetic north pole is the direction in which compass needles point, which is not to be confused with the geographic North Pole, or 'True North'—a fixed point where all longitude lines ...

The magnetic compass is a great example — a magnetized needle, a bit of cork, and a bowl of water are all you need to start navigating the globe.

The right move won't be the same for everyone All said, should you buy the dip on Compass stock? If you're still seriously asking that question, chances are you have a high enough risk tolerance.

Alex Sushkov is updating an old technology with new quantum tricks in hopes of sensing the magnetic influence of dark matter.
