More space news and info at: coconutsciencelaboratory.com - these simulations show what sunset would look like on various worlds.

As these worlds rotate, photons get scattered in different directions depending on the energy of the photons and the types of molecules in the atmospheres. The result is a lovely palette of colors that would be visible to those standing on these worlds.

Please rate and comment, thanks!
