Once you boarded the Healey will there be any sunsets at all?
Or does the sun set and it is just not getting dark? |

Thanks for this interesting question. We will have 24 hour daylight most of the time in August and very long days in September. Here two good websites to check out: Day and night earth Us Naval Oservatory http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/ gives you all the data you need. It will be especially interesting to aviation people like you (sunrise, sunset by definition of FAA or...) Ute |

Ute Hello Ute and Tina, Here's another website I came across that shows information about hours of daylight/darkness in the Arctic. I think it's really neat because it shows how there are large differences even within the Arctic Circle, depending on where you are. http://www.athropolis.com/sun-fr.htm Steve |

So will you be doing anything to prepare for acclimating yourself to the new type of circumstances, such as sleeping through daylight???
