What is Alaska length of day and night?

It depends on where you live in the state. The farther North you live, the longer the daylight is in Summer, and the shorter it is in the Winter. In th June/July months, most of the state never sees the night sky (even if you're far enough south for it to get dark, you'd have to stay up past midnight to see it). And in the Winter, Anchorage has about 6 hours of daylight (from 10AM to 4PM) in the month of December.

Is alaska's sky black in the summer or the winter?

In Alaska, as mid-winter approaches, the days get shorter and shorter. Depending on how far North you are (BIG state) by midwinter the sun does not rise.

What is it like to work for unisea in dutch harbor Alaska?

Don't go! The company will tell you wonderful stories about how much money you can make. Don't fall for it. Most of the employees they hire are outsourced labor from the Philippines, Somalia, and TONS of Mexicans that speak little to no English (of course they're legal!). Once you get to the worksite, you're treated like a number, like dirt. And if you are not Asian/Philipino, you may only work a few days a week. No, I'm not bitter. I'm just giving the facts. If you do go, beware of Juam from security. A racist, Mexican who could not handle a normal job on the mainland. Get on his bad side and you won't work at all. Also, Moma Donna, the "house mom" a total jerk, unless you're Philipino!

Why does Ariel Tweeto from flying high Alaska's jacket sometimes say freeze and sometimes chill?

She's fooling around with mailing labels. They are air shippers and food is stacked, wrapped with shrink wrap and sticky "freeze" or "chill" labels are placed on them. Any business that is liable to handle this mail (Post Office, freight forwarders, airlines etc.) have rolls and rolls of these labels laying around all the time. She is just labeling herself appropriately.
