Best Answer

You may be thinking of the long periods when there are no sunrises, making aurora more visible.

This period occurs between about March 21 and about September 21, depending on where you are on the continent.

Why Antarctica does not have daily changes in its light and dark patterns?

Antarctica has daily changes in its light and dark patterns. Some are quite visible, and others more subtle. Between the Antarctic Circle and the South Pole, the difference in the length of time between sunrises measures from at least one day to 180 days at the South Pole. (At the Antarctic Circle, there is at least one day with no sunrise. At the South Pole, there are six months of days with no sunrise.) And the opposite is true about sunsets. In between those two points, there is a wide range of patterns of light and dark, depending on the season of the year.
