PRUDHOE BAY

Prudhoe Bay -

Prudhoe Bay is above the Arctic Circle. In the summer months there are days when the sun doesn't set, and more days when the sun will be above the horizon at 9 PM local time. On the May 5, June 20, and Aug 5 sky charts, the sun will be above the horizon at the time for which the sky charts are drawn. However you will see this same sky without the sun, at some times during the long winter night when the sun does not rise. The sky of the May 5 chart, for example, will be seen on Dec. 20 at approximately 6 AM. The June 20 sky will be seen three hours later, and the Aug. 5 sky three hours later still.
