∙ 10y agoActually the compass needle should point to true north all the time - it's just that "true north" and "accepted human standard of the North Pole" aren't the same thing. Due to the currents in the earth's mantle, true north and true south can move around over time. The compass needle will point to where it is at currently, but this may not be where humans have agreed to called the location of the North Pole.
AnswerBecause a compass needle aligns itself with the earth's magnetic field, which links Magnetic North and Magnetic South. These locations don't coincide with True North and True South (which lie along the earth's axis of rotation) and continuously shift position relative to True North and True South.
