BKS Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Can you give me the Coordiates of the megnetic North Pole and those of the Nort Pole? THANX Quote Link to comment
+Stunod Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Magentic North Pole Currently it is at about N82.0 W112.4 according to this link. The true pole would be at N90 latitude and any longitude. "Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand." - Homer Simpson Quote Link to comment
Kanto Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 By Stunod's information, and by this calculator, they are 888878.842331894 meters away from each other. I didn't find a vector for it...like pointing to a city or country? ______________________________________________ Kanto [This message was edited by Kanto on July 23, 2003 at 10:42 AM.] Quote Link to comment

(I think caching could be very confusing at the North Pole!) BTW, BKS, are you planning a trip? ============="If it feels good...do it"============== **(the other 9 out of 10 voices in my head say: "Don't do it.") . Quote Link to comment
+CacheUsOut Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Now that would be a 5 star virtual! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If I want to see a sunrise, I'll STAY up for it! Quote Link to comment

Kanto Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Yes, but to what city or location we can to relate to, I asked. After this, where it is moving to and where it has moved from is also interesting, perhaps all that is at the site Stunod linked us to. ______________________________________________ Kanto Quote Link to comment
+Cacheola Crew Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 It already is a virtual. FOUR WINDOWS Quote Link to comment

+Team Og Rof A Klaw Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 The North Magnetic Pole moves around in an 85-km loop once a day. So it'd be a traveling virt. ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost. Quote Link to comment

As for what cities this "points" to, W112 runs near Salt Lake City and Phoenix. "Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand." - Homer Simpson Quote Link to comment
