Solution to A Dumb Problem

Kamangir | February 14, 2006 | Category Iran

Frankly speaking, I was never really convinced that there are places on the earth where there are six-month days and nights. I was told about that in the science school and then I watched Insomnia, but I remember Azadeh and I talking about it a few months ago. None of us was really understanding it. Now, thanks to Hoda, I found a webpage to me which helps understanding this problem.

A homepage dedicated to the earth and moon seen from the above helps dumb guys like me. You can watch earth from any satellite there (see), though it is not very helpful for our problem. However, there is another tool there (see), called home planet, which enables you to “watch” the earth and how night and day evolve on it (download). There are a bunch of more stuff there, like some fancy screen savers (download, download, download).
