There is the possibility that the entire universe may disappear this summer. They are starting up a particle accelerator. It has something to do with that.

You should look into this. Both poles would be gone if that happens.

BTW in case you didn't know a pole is the central point around which things spin.

If you have a top you can try spinning it and watch how it works.

Poles also disappear when the thing stops spinning, so if the Earth stopped going around you could lose your pole as well. Usually both poles go at once. The reason we have a North Pole and a South Pole is completely arbitrary. North and South don't really exist, it is just a linguistic convenience invented to differentiate between the two ends. Light and Dark are similar constructs.

You really ought to get a top out and play with it. You can learn a lot of stuff through playtime.
