The period around the winter solstices, the shortest days and longest nights in the northern hemisphere. It occurs on the 21/22 December when the earth axis, on which it rotates, points at the furthest angle away from the sun in the northern hemisphere (and towards the sun in the southern). Hence as the earth rotates, points close to the pole receive no sun.
It is 67 days of night in Alaska. Its not pitch black like that new movie but there isn't much sunlight.
The places closest to the poles, such as the Arctic Circle, experience the longest days. In the Arctic, particularly locations like northern Norway, Alaska, Iceland, and Canada, the summer solstice can have over 24 hours of daylight, with the sun not setting for several days in a row due to the Earth's axial tilt.
I don't think there is a name for it. sorry :(
i think its just the city of barrow and its surrounding areas. but that 30 days of night sounds freaky and glad im in new york lol [edit] Actually, the 30 days of night only occur in or around barrow. Southeast Alaska such as Anchorage and the rest of the Kenai Peninsula ( including Fairbanks) do not get the 30 days of night
Because it is not far enough north.
yes it is a vampire movie set in alaska
I'm pretty sure that dark days is the second one or sequel to 30 days of night
