The Arctic Circle was a location on Earth.
In 1994, when Khan Noonien Singh's powerbase collapsed, the Augment, feeling he had nothing left to lose, programmed his Morning Star satellite to take position above the Arctic Circle and destroy Earth's ozone layer. Minutes before the satellite completed its mission, Gary Seven convinced Khan to abort the attack, offering him a way to leave Earth instead. (TOS novel: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2)
In 2153, a research team was dispatched to travel there and investigate wreckage of an extraterrestrial craft found in a glacier. Unknown to the team, the debris was from a Borg Sphere that crashed in 2063. The Borg drones were reanimated, assimilated the team, and departed into space from the Arctic Circle.
