the strongest magnet in the world boasts 900 times the earths magnetism, so why wouldn’t a compass point towards those superior magnets?

Also does anyone know how those ultra strong magnets are affecting our planet if at all?

Edit: sorry the [link](https://imamagnets.com/en/blog/what-is-most-powerful-magnet/#:~:text=The%20world’s%20most%20powerful%20magnet%20is%2044.14%20Teslas.&text=This%20super%20magnet%20has%20a,we%20find%20in%20a%20hospital) says 900,000 times the earths magnetism

Edit 2: Thank you wonderful people for clearing that up. Your minor support did more for my mental health than you realize not just for the knowledge but also the general support from the community. Y’all are amazing.

Your fridge magnet is much stronger than earth’s magnetism, use one near a compass and you will see.

A magnet’s RANGE is based on its strength, but also it’s size.
Earth’s magnetic field is super weak, but since size also is a factor in range, it’s range is global.

You are simply out of range of that huge magnet.

(Doubling your distance from a magnet Quarters it’s power on you. If you’re near that super magnet, walking away will quickly make it’s power almost 0 on you, however, good luck doubling your distance from earth’s core.)
