Why does the outer edge of the atmosphere at the north pole receive no solar radiation in December?

If you're standing exactly on the north Pole, then during the six months when the sun never rises, Polaris ... the "Pole" star or "North" star ... makes a tiny circle directly over your head once a day, about 1/3 of a degree from the North Celestial Pole. Everything else in the sky circles the same point once a day, but in much larger circles.
