The Earth's magnetic field is always fluctuating.   It even flips from time to time.   A record of this is kept in the rocks, which align magnetic particles according to the magnetic field.   If it went away completely, we'd be seeing a lot more damage from solar radiation, but it's not going away.   The outer core is liquid and constantly churning from convection, and that produces the magnetic field.

Earth's magnetic field is rapidly getting weaker, and geophysicists don't know why. The decrease in strength--a startling 10% in the last 160 years--could signal that the magnetic field is starting one of its sporadic flip-flops.

 

Let me say the answer by the title of this song: "it's the final countdown". https://youtu.be/9jK-NcRmVcw

Dear Mr M,

The Earth's magnetic field has reversed many, many times. While the mechanism isn't fully understood, and the timescales vary widely, in this present geological era they are happening once every few hundred thousand years. We are overdue for one of these reversals - the last one happened about 780,000 years ago.

The reversal of the earth's magnetic field is captured in ferromagnetic rocks, usually ones formed through volcanic activity. When the rock forms, iron atoms in the rock align themselves in the direction of the earth's magnetic field and the rock becomes weakly magnetised. It is very easy to measure in present day that this has happened.

There is no correlation in the fossil record to extinction events with these reversals. So probably nothing to worry about.

That's reassuring.   I've heard this from a number of science sources, do you have links to data?

Ahh theories and studies of and by mankind, all leading to worries, and seldom of hope that is certain.

Cation and anion Ions,  fallen canopies, and even reversal of spin direction, plus a complete standing still;  yet I am told "Do  not worry about tomorrow for today has enough troubles of it's own."

My Lord has gone to prepare a place for me, me personally along with place for many, and He will come for me when His Father declares it to happen. That is my security.

While this may be the time of the signs ( I believe it is)  there's also seemingly confirmation  within the signs, that the hope that is certain is coming and will come rapidly when it happens. Time to be bold in sharing of the gospel of Jesus and not fear of "things" that are temporal. For therein is the hope that is certain, eternal life, beyond this day in the corruptible flesh. For many will have a new body,  a spiritual body and there will be a new heaven, a new Jerusalem, and a new earth.

Earths Magnetic Field Weakening

I think maybe we should talk to World Leader Greta Thunberg! :help:

Great idea! If she can't rally the world, no one can. Maybe build a bigger supercollider or outlaw refrigerator magnets. :D
