Kerbin light cycle and questions about the north/south pole.

[jpem]

I'm trying to figure out if and when the north and south pole's get any substantial sunlight. Normally they seem to only get a little on one edge. Now Kerbin doesn't seem to be tilted the way Earth is (from just looking at it ingame, perhaps i'm completely wrong?) so it probably shouldn't work the way it works for earth. Can't say I know much about the matter, so was wondering if anyone did and could explain the way the light cycle works for the poles on Kerbin.

If you are right on one of the poles of Kerbin, you should see the sun moving along the horizon, so you should get some light all the time.

Kerbin isn't tilted, so if you sit on the north or south pole, you will see the Sun rotate around you on the horizon once a day all year long.

Ah alright, so there just wont be light on the whole thing all at once. Let's hope I land in the right spot then.

the closer you are to the north pole the faster does your camera/navbal rotates.

So that helps
