These changes were accompanied by a weakening in the magnetic field, he says, to as low as about 6% of its strength today. He explains that it "then zoomed down through the Pacific really fast to Antarctica and hung out there for about 400 years and then shot back up through the Indian Ocean to the North Pole again." "Even though it was short, the North Pole did wander across North America, right out towards New York, actually, and then back again across to Oregon," says Alan Cooper, an evolutionary biologist with Blue Sky Genetics and the South Australian Museum. Iron molecules embedded in sediments around the world also captured a record of this magnetic wobble, which unfolded over about a thousand years. Volcanic activity back then, during the flip, produced this distinctive iron signature as the molten lava cooled and locked the iron into place. This reversal is called the Laschamp excursion, after lava flows in France that contain bits of iron that are basically pointed the wrong way.
