What scientific fact requires airports to renumber their runways regularly?

Answer:

For most airports, the runways are numbered according to their orientation to a compass. The Earth's magnetic poles are currently moving at a rate of about 40 miles per year, which means that periodically airports have to renumber their runways to match the changes.
