Original Note:
The mariner’s compass works due to Earth’s magnetic field, which aligns with the planet’s rotation and spherical shape. It always points to the magnetic poles, proving Earth isn’t flat. A flat Earth would lack consistent magnetic poles. Learn more from NASA: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/nasa-study-earth-s-magnetic-material
