The world stood on its head
The magnetic field extends tens of thousands of kilometres from the Earth, and the area in which it occurs is called the Earth's magnetosphere.
Imagine that in the interior of the Earth, more or less along its axis, there is a long magnet. Like any other magnet, it has positive charges on one side and negative charges on the other. Here, however, things get complicated, and the world stands on its head!
For the positive pole of our planet (i.e. the magnetic south pole) is located in the north (where the polar bears are). The magnetic north pole, on the other hand, is located in the south (where the penguins are). This is why the compass needle always points north (approximately, as the geographic and magnetic poles do not quite coincide). The colour-coded end of the needle is negatively charged - so it reacts to positive charges coming from the north.
The poles have helped humans navigate for centuries, but we are not the only species orienting ourselves according to the magnetosphere. It also serves sea turtles and birds to navigate during their annual migrations. Interestingly, the deviation of the magnetic poles from the geographical poles is suspected to have contributed to the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus. Who is said to have been the son of an incognito Polish king.
But that's another story...
Aurora Borealis
Our protective magnetic bubble plays a key role in protecting the Earth from harmful cosmic influences, such as the solar wind and cosmic radiation. However, our large magnet does not repel solar wind particles, but 'catches' them and redistributes them towards the poles - hence, so beautiful and fascinating, the aporea phenomenon.
In the case of strong solar winds, caused by so-called solar storms, megnetic field disturbances can occur. This results in interference with communications and even damage to power lines, among other things. The aurora, on the other hand, then becomes very bright and can be observed even at latitudes where it does not usually occur, e.g. in Poland or even further south.
To "hunt" for it, it is worth following the auroraforecast.com website, and to make a note of the potential date in our magnetic notebook so as not to forget it.
