Seasons at the Poles By Cindy Grigg

¹     Caption: This time-lapse photo shows the path of the sun over a three hour time span in Norway.
 
²     The South Pole is on the continent of Antarctica. The North Pole is not on any continent. It is located in the frozen Arctic Ocean.
 
³     Seasons in the Polar Regions are extreme. Winter is several months of darkness. Summer is several months of daylight. That's why the Arctic is called "the Land of the Midnight Sun."
