The North Pole, also known as the Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole, is the point in the Northern Hemisphere where the Earth's axis of rotation meets its surface. It is called the True North Pole to distinguish from the Magnetic North Pole .

The Earth's Magnetic North Pole is actually considered the "south pole" in terms of a typical magnet, meaning that the north pole of a magnet would be attracted to the Earth's Magnetic North Pole. [2] The north magnetic pole moves over time according to magnetic changes and flux lobe elongation [3] in the Earth's outer core. [4]
In December 2011, Markus Persson announced [7] that he was going to be stepping down as the lead developer of Minecraft, and that he would be working on another project.. Mojang CEO Carl Manneh said in an interview with Edge Online that Mojang was committed to supporting a new project that Persson was developing along with another game created by other developers in their compa

Detail from Gerardus Mercator's map of the Arctic (c. 1620 edition), showing the Rupes Nigra at the North Pole ('POLVS ARCTICVS'), surrounded by four large islands. The Rupes Nigra ("Black Rock"), a phantom island, was believed to be a black rock located at the Magnetic North Pole or at the geographic North Pole itself.
English: A space elevator in motion, rotating with the Earth over the period of one sidereal day. As viewed from high above the north pole. The faint circle around the Earth represents the level of geostationary orbit. A satellite (green dot) is shown in geostationary orbit flying slightly behind the space elevator cable.
The exponential map of the Earth as viewed from the north pole is the polar azimuthal equidistant projection in cartography. In Riemannian geometry, an exponential map is a map from a subset of a tangent space T p M of a Riemannian manifold (or pseudo-Riemannian manifold) M to M itself. The (pseudo) Riemannian metric determines a canonical ...
