Anyplace on earth that's farther north than the Arctic Circle, or farther south than the
Antarctic Circle, has at least one day a year when the sun doesn't rise, and at least
one day a year when the sun doesn't set. The closer you get to the poles, the longer
these annual periods of no sunrise and no sunset get.
Most of Alaska is south of the Arctic Circle, and has a sunrise and sunset every day of
the year. The Arctic Circle crosses Alaska on the line roughly through Shishmaref, Allakaket,
and Fort Yukon. North of that line is where you can have 24 hours without a sunrise
or 24 hours without a sunset.

Equinoxes are when there are twelve hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. The autumnal equinox is on September 21st on average, and the vernal equinox is on March 21st on average. You can tell that the seasons have changed and the equinoxes and solstices have occured because the amount of sunlight changes and temperatures also change. Solstices are when there is either the shortest or longest amount of daylight. The summer solstice is when there is the longest amount of daylight. After the summer solstice, days begin to slowly get shorter until the autumnal equinox. The winter solstice is when there is the shortest amount of daylight. After the winter solstice the days get longer until you reach the vernal equinox.
