64 Days of Darkness: The Polar Night in Alaska Utqiagvik

In Utqiagvik, Alaska, the northernmost town in the U.S., the sun sets in mid-November and won’t rise again for 64 days due to the phenomenon of polar night. Located above the Arctic Circle, this natural occurrence happens because the Earth's tilt keeps the sun below the horizon during winter. Despite the prolonged darkness, residents embrace this unique period, illuminated by the stunning Northern Lights and the faint glow of twilight.
