No, it's not the moon, it's Barrow, Alaska.
According to Wikipedia: Barrow is the northernmost settlement on the North American mainland and in the United States. The population was 3,982 in 2007, according to the United States Census Bureau.
On November 18 or 19 the sun goes down, and remains below the horizon for about 65 days until it re-appears, normally on January 22 or January 23. During the first half of the polar night there is a decreasing amount of twilight each day, and on the winter solstice, December 21 or December 22, civil twilight in Barrow lasts for a mere 3 hours.[11][12]
