There are areas on Earth that can receive 24 hours of day and 24 hours of night - but not at the same time. North of 66 1/2 degrees latitude N. (the Arctic Circle) will receive 24 hours of sunlight during the middle of the summer. During the middle of winter this same area will receive no sunlight. During these 2 seasons it is just the opposite south of 66 1/2 degrees S. latitude (Antarctic Circle). This is all due to the tilt of the earth's axis and if it is tilted towards or away from the sun.
