ReneThe line of latitude at 66 degrees 30 minutes south is known as the Antarctic Circle. This line marks the southernmost point at which the sun can be seen at its highest point in the sky during the December solstice. On this line, there will be one day per year where the sun does not set (during the summer solstice) and one day where it does not rise (during the winter solstice).
That would be the "parallel of 66 degrees north".
The Arctic Circle is located only about 1/2 degree north of that parallel.
