This is a dip circle, and it's used to measure
the angle between the direction of the earth's magnetic field and the
horizontal at any point on the surface. This will not save you from
magnetic pole shift.
Want some more? Well, how about a magnetic pole shift? ‘Cause
that's happening now, with magnetic north (and thus the direction of
compasses) changing by up to 40 miles a year, and getting faster all the
time. Martin: The thing we have to watch for is the physical core switch of our axis.It's like when you put two positive magnets together, and you push them together, they violently flip around, and
that happens kind of for the same reason. Our sheet of earth is
floating on magma, and the plates move around and when the magma and
core gets highly active because of the magnetics, it moves those plates
and switches the earth around a lot, and the physical sheet of earth
could switch or move around, or flip to the other side, and that could
be 100 percent death to everybody. There's no way of getting out from
under that. The only place you'd be safe is on the space station.
