That depends on your latitude. It's a different number for every angle between

the equator and a pole.

For example:

-- Let's say we refer the discussion to the northern Hemisphere, so the 'Summer' Solstice

is the one on June 21.

-- At the north Pole on June 21, there hasn't been a sunset for 3 months, and

there won't be one for another 3 months. So no daylight is lost per day at the

north pole.

-- On the equator after June 21, there will actually be a few more minutes of daylight

each day, until September 21.
