yes my cousin lived in anchorage for two years and the had 6 months of light and 6 months of darkness
Fairbanks Alaska has 11 months of darkness per year, and 5 months of light/dark mix the rest of the year. Except during leap year, when Fairbanks only has 9 months total, and 7 of them are non-stop light, to make up for the eleven months of darkness.
Yes. The reason Alaska has 6 months in the day and night, is because the Earth's axis is tilted. Meaning that Alaska is in the North and in the spring and summer it will point at the sun. In the winter and fall, the sun will point to the opposite way from the sun.
Alaska
Every place on Earth, when averaged out over a year, gets 6 months of daylight and 6 months of darkness. At the equator this daylight and darkness is spaced out in about 12 hour intervals (day and night). However, because of the tilt of the Earth's axis of spin, as one move towards the poles the length of night and day changes with the seasons until when you reach the poles, daylight lasts for 6 continual months and darkness lasts for 6 continual months. Alaska is near the North pole, so during summer the days are very long.
This phenomenon, known as polar day and polar night, occurs in polar regions near the North and South Poles. These regions experience 6 months of continuous daylight during the polar day and 6 months of constant darkness during the polar night.

Countries located within the Arctic and Antarctic Circles, such as Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of Alaska, experience periods of constant daylight and constant darkness, known as the midnight sun and polar night, due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.
Countries near the poles, like Norway, Sweden, Finland and parts of Alaska experience up to 6 months of daylight and darkness Known as the Midnight Sun and Polar Night, this natural phenomenon occurs due to the Earth's tilt, making these regions a unique experience for adventurous travelers.
Thats what im trying to find out!!!!
