North South Magnetic Poles transition/reversal - When will this occur next?

I understand that geomagnetic reversals occur routinely and that one is due to occur (soon?). Does anyone know when this event will occur next? Also, does this type of transition ...show more

Answer:
It's thought that the poles have reversed many times over the Earth's history. They usually take centuries to happen. The biggest danger is the gradual weakening of the magnetosphere, which protects us from all kinds of nasty radiation from the sun. The magnetic has been showing signs of weakening over the last century. We're probably due for a switch.

Raymond is indeed guessing. Facts and evidence show..........that dramatic shifts in weather patterns happened quite suddenly......as with animals and wolly mammoths and saber tooth tigers, basically found flash frozen, in tact, in snow and ice. It suggests the climate where they lived, obviously quite peacefully.....changed DRAMATICALLY and so suddenly.......that there was no time to escape or migrate, as things gradually got worse. Like the change was SUDDEN, and unexpected. There have also been disoveries of things like FRUIT trees, buring under the ice in the Antarctica.......which suggest that clearly the continient was once in a position to support such plant life.......but that changed suddenly, burying the plant life in ice. In Grahm Hancock's book.........Fingerprints of the Gods..........(which admittedly, is put in the FICTION section, as it does contain a good bit of pretty junky science).......still...........like Dan Brown.......he does mix a good deal of FACT and real evidence...............with some pretty absurd wild guesses.........and in the end, they are just as possible as anything else. His own theory..........which he details in the book..........is that these changes occur basically every 12,000 years------like clockwork.......based on the earth's wobble, as it hurtles thru space. (Magentic pole reversal) and can explain virtually every mystery known to man today........ why the dinosaurs suddenly vanished........the ice age, the reversal of the ice age.......what happened to the Mayans.........what happened in Peru..........what happened to Atlantis......etc. andddddddddd, he makes a compelling case.......that we're next........and that might be right SOON, as according to his theory..........we are NOW living in the approximate 12,000th year of such a cycle. Meaning, the next reversal is at hand. and as we see all these freak storms, getting more and more powerful, and more deadly........... the man may not be all that crazy after all. In fact......he might be dead right. It was an excellent book......very compelling............(just wish he hadn't shortchanged the facts and the science as much as he did. ) It also explains why our own history , doesn't seem to go back more than 6 or 7,000 years BC. because everything before that, was destroyed.....which, fits in, with legends all over the world, (not just Chrisitianity) of a global flood. It was interesting stuff............
