Q&A

Would it be possible for a planet to go without sunlight for three months?

+0
−0

This planet orbits a larger planet, which then orbits a binary solar system. Is there a way - based on the tilt of a planetary axis or the positioning of the planet in relation to its mother planet and stars - to go completely without sunlight for a season? The life on this planet aside, would it be possible for the planet to literally not see either of its suns for three months? I'm thinking it could be similar to Iceland during winter, but that's much more dependent on the planetary axis.
