MIDNIGHT
SUN
📍 SVALBARD, NORWAY
What is midnight sun?
Midnight sun, also called polar day is a phenomena that occurs in
polar regions such as
in Svalbard, Norway located at 78 ° N.
I had the privilege
of spending my summer here to study Arctic geology
and was able to experience it firsthand.
There is no night time in the summer
and the opposite occurs in the winter
where daytime is nonexistent.
Fun fact: There are more polar bears than people
that live
in this town so you need to take a
rifle training course to carry a firearm and a flare for when you go out of town.
