Throughout the months when the sun doesn't set (May 26th to July 17th) does the sun move in the sky or does it stay in a constant position? Jacqueline Period 1 Springs School

Hello Jacqueline,
Thanks for your question! Yes, the sun does move across the sky just as it does where you live, yet here it is lower on the horizon. At about 2:30am the sun is very low on to the horizon and sometimes creates pinks and reds that reflect on the mountains. It is beautiful.
