Interesting facts:
• Sunsets on other planets appear different because of the differences in the distance from the planet to the sun and in different atmospheric compositions.
• A general rule of thumb, the more you enjoy the sunset, the more you’ll be stuffed up in the morning.
• There’s also a nifty little phenomenon cleverly called green flash, which is a brief, er, “flash” of green that can be spotted at the very tippy top of a setting sun. This effect usually can only be seen for a second or two near the end of a sunset.
• Sunrise color intensities can however exceed sunset's intensities when there are nighttime fires, volcanic eruptions or emissions, or dust storms to the east of the viewer. A number of eruptions in recent times, such as those of Mount Pinatubo in 1991 and Krakatoa in 1883, have been sufficiently large to produce remarkable sunsets and sunrises all over the world.
