Earth’s Magnetic Field Weakens, Impacting Satellites and Spacecraft: Space Agency - The Epoch Times

The Earth’s magnetic field is weakening between Africa and South America, causing problems for spacecraft and satellites, scientists with the European Space Agency (ESA) have said.

One possibility for the shift, according to the ESA, is that it’s a sign the Earth’s magnetic field is about to reverse, meaning that the North Pole and South Pole may switch places.

The ESA stated that it would continue to monitor the weakening magnetic field with its Swarm satellites.
