By coincidence, I had been asking myself much the same question recently, and the conclusion I came to was that the latitude was irrelevant. If at the north or south pole the sun can be seen for six months of the year. From the equator, or any latitude, it can be seen for on average 12 hours a day..? > From: Frank Reed > Here's a bit of astronomical trivia: > From what latitude on Earth can you see the Sun for the greatest number > of hours in a year, ignoring clouds?
