Polar shift?planet killer?

Question

what a banging combination! but, what's so true about it? why do others conclude that its not something sort of a joke? can you give me poof please....?' ',)

Answer 1

Polar shift is not a planet killer, polar shift means that the north pole magnetic Field becomes the south magnetic field, in other words, you are standing there with a compost, and the red end of the needle is pointed north, then the poles shift, the red end of the needle will then point south, that is polar shift, and it isn't a planet killer.
But a Pole wobble could kill the people on earth.
If the north pole leaned over to say 30 degrees then this will change the earth's weather systems, plus where the north polar ice cap is now, it will melt, and re-form futher south.

Answer 2

Sure, that is easy...

Have you ever seen pictures or news casts talking about some volcano erruption shooting out streams of molten lava?

If you have seen some of these, then it should not be hard for you to understand that beneath the thick crust of Earth, there is a huge amount of molten matter extending all the way down to the core.

The Earth is spinning, and it is not exactly a sphere. There are high mountains in places and deep valleys in others. Some areas are capped with gigantic sheets of ice three, four, and five hundred feet thick. So the surface weight (mass) on the crust of the Earth varies from place to place, pushing down with differing amounts of force. You might visualize this as heavy crust sections pushing down on the molten core beneath which forces lighter laden crust areas upward. Over time these pushing forces build up and are released at weak points in the crust structure. This is called an earthquake.

Since the center mass of the Earth is molten, there is nothing to suggest that the middle of the Earth must spin at the exact same rate as the surface crust spins... In fact it spins at a slightly different rate. The Earth's core is reported to be a huge ball of iron in a molten, liquid, state. So the ball of liquid iron can shift somewhat, and when it does, the Poles move about a corresponding amount.....wander about over time.

Were something highly significant to occur which upset this spinning molten mass enough, the poles could shift a very large amount, causing global chaos. The impact of a large asteroid might cause this event to occur, and such an event is possible some time in the future.

Answer 3

I have answered this before

I have listed about 8 disastrous effects
my final conclusion is

the end of the world is not yet
for it is written in the book that earth will last for the next 6 billion of years when the sun will fade

Answer 4

I don't know too much about this, but I noticed one wrong fact in your explanation Zanbudar. The Earth's Core is a Solid. Although it is super hot, it is so densely packed that it is in the solid state. Just wanted to point that out.

Answer 5

It is believed to have happen before, there is fossil evidence that the equator was once located where the north pole is today.
