Answer:
Alaska Gets Six Months of 24-Hour Sunlight and Darkness
So at the North Pole the duration of 24-hour darkness lasts almost 11-weeks, not six months.
Step-by-step explanation:
Barrow is one of Alaska's northernmost cities and gets complete darkness for two months out of the year. During the summer, the sun doesn't completely set in Barrow from early May until the end of July.
Antarctica has just two seasons: summer and winter. Antarctica has six months of daylight in its summer and six months of darkness in its winter.
The North Pole has midnight sun for 6 months from late March to late September. The opposite phenomenon, polar night, occurs in winter, when the Sun stays below the horizon throughout the day.
