Sunset on Mars

Honestly, I am just awestruck. The view of a sunset from another planet. Most of humanity could not even dream of such a thing. (Note: a video at the link)

I'd love to see that from a human's eye perspective. A camera show's the sun at its actual size where the human eye sees it much larger as it approaches the horizon.

Man, that really makes a feller think. Thanks for posting!

I suspect they had some sunrise shots from the Apollo orbiting the moon, but this is the first sunrise pic I've seen from any place other than earth.  That's cool, thanks.

I love stuff like that.  Thanks for posting it.

I have long been a fan of APOD, NASA'a Astronomy Picture of the Day site, at

Almost always worth visiting, 24 March 2015 is especially kid friendly.

You mean a human -brain's- perspective...the distortion is a brain interpretation, not a true eye distortion
(Of course, the retina's preprocessing and the optic nerve are outgrowths (since the ON has Schwann cells just like the rest of the CNS unlike other peripheral nerves) of the human brain, but that's just splitting hairs)

Reminds me of the best "anti-selfie" EVER...as in this picture, EVERY human being except one (Michael Collins) is in the frame
