Difficulties of the dynamo and alternative theories of the magnetic field generation are briefly discussed. The correlation between η = lg μ/μo and ζ = lg J/Jo for rotating celestial bodies is considered. μ is the magnetic and J the angular momentum of the body. Existing theories do not explain such a correlation, and it may be an evidence for some new fundamental interaction.
