Answer:

Six straight Months

Step-by-step explanation:

At the North Pole, the sun is above the horizon for six straight months (March through September), spinning around in horizontal circles, reaching a maximum height of 23.5° above the horizon at the June solstice. As you travel southward in the northern hemisphere, the noon sun gets higher and higher.
