What is the name of the imaginary line drawn on the earth above which the sun will not set for at least one day during the year?

In the northern hemisphere the line is the arctic circle. North of this line the sun does not rise on December 21st each year with more days having the lack of sun the further north you go. The sun does not set on June 20/21st in the same region with more days with full sun the further north you go during the summer. In the southern hemisphere the line is the antarctic circle.The same event takes place just reverse of the regions in the northern hemisphere. ie more sun in the winter and less sun in the summer.


Where does the sun shine least directly on earth?

The sun shines least directly on Earth near the poles, particularly the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Due to the curvature of the Earth, sunlight strikes these areas at a much lower angle, resulting in less intense solar radiation. During winter months, these regions can also experience polar night, where the sun does not rise above the horizon for extended periods.

How high above the earth does an orbit have to be?

Orbit can't be maintained in atmosphere. Some temporary low orbits are possible at lower heights. About the lowest possible orbit around the earth is 80 km high, but it will decay rapidly because it is still in the earth's atmosphere (the thermosphere). Even where the atmosphere is extremely thin (only a few molecules of gas in a cubic meter), the friction will eventually slow the orbit of a satellite or vehicle, and it will fall to earth.
