Probable Causes for Polar Twist

I mean serious man.

Well what do you mean "polar twist"

A wobble

B rotational displacement verses 0 longitude

C the floating ice cap rotated

D ?

Sorry, this is what I meant:

D) Translation of the Earths axis(magnetic poles) ->> Polar Twist

Ah! - Magnetic reversal or maybe Polar Shift

There was a whole thread on just recently ....... Nup can't see it - have a search in 'this forum'

Meanwhile this Hobbit is a fun read..

Pole Shift & Pole Reversal in 2012 - by Patrick Geryl

Well, according to this, the earth has experienced geomagnetic reversals 96 times since creation.

Causes are thought to be internal events or external events.

Is this what you are after?

Wow - 96 times!

• Maya civilization - August 11, 3114 BCE
• Judaism - September 22 or March 29, 3760 BCE^[1][2]
• James Ussher (1654) - October 23, 4004 BCE^[3]
• Byzantine Church calculation - September 1, 5509 BCE^[4]
• María de Ágreda - 5199 BCE

Like once every 53 to 78 years!

You would think we would have noticed.

Hey, doorman. Any merchandise for that t-shirt you got there? That's cute man and also your model too.

When the earth quake occurred the pacific plate slide under the American plate and moved Japan 2.5m closer to America, this caused a redistribution of global masses resulting in a realignment of the earth axis. about 100mm I think?

PS. CNN report;

The massive earthquake that hit Japan on Friday was so powerful that it changed the shape of the country's coastline and shifted the earth's axis.

Geophysicist Kenneth Hudnut, who works for the U.S. Geological Survey, told CNN that the quake moved part of Japan's land mass by nearly 2.5 meters.

Experts say that the huge shake, caused by a shift in the tectonic plates deep underwater, also threw the earth off its axis point by at least 8 centimeters.

Thousands of people were unaccounted for in Japan on Saturday, a day after the 8.9 earthquake shook the country and giant tsunami waves crashed 10 kilometers inland in the northeast.

Some information for this report was provided by Reuters.

I think I miss understood your post, are you referring to polar reversal, north became south and south became north, some time back in the distant past? Haven't got the faintest idea. If the Japan event is any quide, and as land masses have moved over long distances, then that might be a clue.

In my opinion, as polar ice melts the balance of the globe is changed. At the same time, the central core of the Earth seems to move around under the crust, taking the magnetic poles with it, or vice versa. (?)

The magnetic fields of the Sun affect the magnetic fields of the Earth. If the Sun's fields move about for some reason, the Earth's fields will follow them. I have read that this force is greater than gravity. Probably a big part of the reason why the planets are all in the same plane, with most of the poles aligned with the Sun's.

This is something I never read of. If that's the case, were already be doomed if the sun shifted a little on its magnetic poles.

But how would this relate for the shifting of the earth axis to some degree caused by the recent earthquake? I heard about it. If the concept you present above is true, it would come to an implication that the planets axis' are fixed and can not be moved or even shifted a little agree or could be shifted just after sometime and could re-aligned itself basing on the sun's. This makes me worry.

Taking the concept above is true. Probably right after disturbance, the re-alignment will be causing another sort of effect. Just like the process of control for PID controllers. Adjustment causes some swings either +/- from set point(by the sun) for sometime until diminished.

I got that from "The Energy Machine of Joseph Neuman". Yeah, his motor is unproven, but that doesn't mean his other research is wrong. He describes experiments with large magnets and compasses to prove his point. The field from a large magnet can reach all the way across a room to affect a compass, just ask any sailor how easy they are to disrupt. Look in books about the sun's field, see how far out it goes.

Yes, a disturbance can change our orbit, but it will return, eventually. It does make me wonder why the Earth is tilted, though. Maybe our orbit is not exactly around the Sun's equator.
