2. A map titled 'Heading North' showing the movement of Earth's north magnetic pole from 1590 to 2019. The map displays the Arctic region, including parts of Canada, Greenland, Russia, and Svalbard. A blue line traces the magnetic pole's path from southern Canada in 1590, meandering northward through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago until 1900, then continuing as a dotted line toward Russia through 2019. The geographic North Pole is marked with a black square. The map illustrates that the magnetic pole is moving about 35 miles closer to Russia each year.
