Last sunrise at Prudhoe Bay was May 22. The sun just goes round and round. What time is the transit EDT so they know when to clear a path through the mosquitoes?

...Mosquitoes. In Prudhoe Bay? I'm on the Chesapeake Bay. I suggest a mosquito net... The sun goes round and,,, doesn't set in the far north. I could conclude that Prudhoe Bay is north of the Arctic Circle, at least after May 22. Alaska? It's late here on the east coast. Don't make me research geographics. Does time go by faster at the north pole, than at the equator???

...Uhhh, I'm not sure about transit EDT. My guess is the farther north, the more of the northern sky will be visible...

...Thanks for evolving some ideas I might not have thunk on my own. If yer have any more questions about science, ask a scientist...%!)
