Polar Astronomy and Anthropology

For observers standing at the Pole, the heavens would appear to have
been created just for them. Their unique perspective places Polaris,
the only motionless star in the sky, perfectly situated directly above
them, with all the other visible stars rotating horizontal left to right
paths 360 degrees around, all at an apparently equal distance away.
The Sun and Moon also rotate horizontally around the polar observer,
with the Sun rising and setting only once per year, creating 6 month
days and 6 month nights!
For polar observers the Sun rises in the South, not the East, and
circles horizontally around rising ever so slightly in the sky, about a
quarter degree per day. This creates an extended morning twilight with
its brilliant colors which instead of lasting for the usual 45 minutes,
lasts around 45 days! Every year at the spring equinox, after a long
winter night, dawn begins to break and the first traces of the Sun creep
above the horizon. By summer solstice the Sun reaches its highest
point in the polar sky, around 23.5 degrees, and begins its slow, almost
imperceptible descent. At the autumnal equinox, the last traces of the
Sun disappear beyond the horizon, and an extended evening twilight
persists for a month and half, after which the polar observer will not
see sunlight again until spring. Thanks to abundant starlight, regular
aurora borealis activity, and two weeks of moonlight per month, the long
polar nights are not pitch black, but actually quite well lit and
beautiful.
In all, a year at the Pole sees approximately six months of
continuous daylight, followed by a month and a half of evening twilight,
then three months of relative darkness, ending in a month and half long
spring dawn. The exact number of days for each portion of the polar
year is disputed among various authorities, however, which raises the
question again as to whether or not modern man truly has attained the
Pole. If we have research bases and encampments built all over at and
around the North Pole as claimed, why is there not a single video online
or anywhere else showing a year-long continuous time-lapse of this
world wonder!? To see Polaris unmoving directly 90 degrees overhead
while all the other stars rotate horizontally around uninterrupted by
sunlight for months at a time, then to watch the first rays of the
longest, most beautiful dawn lighting the horizon and revolving 360
degrees around without setting for many more months, would be an
absolute spectacle to behold, worthy of an Imax documentary, and a true
wonder of the world, but somehow no such video exists.
