Dear trevorgrindz, Simply Yes! But there are great factor at work right NOW! The Earth moves around the Sun in a cork screw motion. following the Sun as it also moves around the Milkyway Galaxy. which in turn moves around the Universe. Earth IS a space ship. We are never in the same place twice. But closer we have factor like La Nina, Volcanoes and earth quakes Currently more. There is (SAM) Southern Arctic Mode. Tonga Vucanoe that has sent a shock wave around the world as seen from space. (Youtube - Astrum science) there is the Indian Ocean effect. and more. But WHY HAS THE CORE /MANTEL HEATED? It has! That is why the magnetic field has changed the iron or ferrous metals have become more fluid and moved around, which has move the Magnetic North Pole - South Pole. All this is changing our weather.. Question is what is making the CORE and Mantel heat.. I personally can only make an assumption. Space energies we are passing through creating friction and heat in the Planet. That is the short and breath answer. Great Question. Check out Earthquakes and volcanos on you tube and on line. Oh! In 2019 the GPS system had to be updated (Urgently and early) as the shift had moved 32klms putting Magnetic North closer to true North.
