Slow core gang rises again!

Causing magnetic pole reversal?

[–] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not likely, considering the last few times it happened it didn't. This is the first time it's happened since the 1980s, not the first time it's happened.

Everything happening in the universe is "natural phenomena." If we can't explain it, we don't have enough information.
