Ilulissat, Greenland. For generations, the sun peaked over | |
the horizon for the first time after a long winter in this | |
extreme northern region on exactly the same day; January | |
13. But in 2011, the sun rose two full days early, | |
something that had never happened in recorded history. | |
As to the "why" of this event, no one really has an answer. | |
Even more baffling is the fact that it hasn't happened again | |
since. There are still plenty of articles about this on the | |
plain old internet, but I figured I'd store a few particular | |
comments and items that I saved about the event here. | |
It is important not to abandon real events, simply because | |
we cannot explain them. | |
