I have no idea, but try typing in "why are the days so long in Northern Alaska?" Good luck!
It depends on what season it is.

About the whole "Days are 6 months long" thing- not true. Alaska has days and nights like any other place- BUT- the further North you go, the more pronounced the difference in the length of days and nights. In winter, days get shorter and shorter, until around 21 Dec, the sun may only rise for a few minutes- or not at all. Again- how far North are you? Juneau will be very different from Point Barrow.
It is the long truncated portion of the State that lies west of Canada and south of the larger land mass of Alaska that includes such cities as Anchorage, Fairbanks and Barrow. Juneau is in the Panhandle as a reference point.
According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the year 2003 the largest seaport, in tonnage, was the port of South Louisiana. Click on the 'US Seaports' link to see how seaports ranked in the year 2003.
== == It is almost 3,500 miles from Detroit, Michigan to Juneau, Alaska. And this journey takes a little more than 60 hours. It's IMPOSSIBLE to make the trip in 60-hours straight through, even when stopping to pee or eat. It's best to give yourself at least 5-days, but probably longer if you want to see some great sites along the way. And that's to Alaska's closest point. Alaska is a HUGE state, so if you wanted to go up north like to Nome or Point Barrow, it would be at least another 24-hours.
