• Resumen

  • The article discusses the periodic reversal of the Earth's magnetic field and research that suggests the phenomenon may occur again within 2,000 years. Topics include data from the European Space Agency's (ESA) "Swarm" satellite array that shows a weakening of the magnetic field, comments from geophysicist Gary A. Glatzmaier of the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the potential impact of the event on humans.
