I was in Finland the other day reading about a town above the arctic circle and the phenomena of winters where the sun doesn't shine for weeks and summers where the sun does not set. I was wondering what would be the nature of the moon sightings above the arctic circle. Will it too be gone for weeks in the winter and/or visible all day in summer? Is there a lunar arctic circle delineating how far north one needs to go befoe not seeing the moon or seeing it circle the sky? Or is this phenomena too erratic to mark due to the makedly different orbits of the sun and moon in relation to earth? I'm curious to hear some ideas on this subject. Thanks, Doug
