Collaborative experiment: Magnetic inclination and declination.
#3
One of my intentions is to make pupils aware of how we once used the sun for navigation. Thus, the project focuses on determining the magnetic inclination and declination and on how to use the sun for navigation. This way, it is possible to include other subjects in a school project.

I am on a sabbatical in Uppsala right now, and Anders Celsius (with the temperature scale), who was a professor in astronomy there, did measurements of the magnetic inclination and declination and whether it was influenced by auroras. They built a special house for that purpose without any metal.
