What does dawn look like? This is what dawn looks like on different planets. Burning Sky of Io
Guys, we put our soul into the site. Thank you for that
that you are discovering this beauty. Thanks for the inspiration and goosebumps.

The sun is something without which it is impossible to imagine life on our planet. We all love to remember gorgeous sunsets and sunrises that we simply couldn’t tear ourselves away from. But can we imagine what the celestial body looks like on other planets? Digital illustrations created by Ron Miller, who has spent decades depicting outer space, will help us do just that.
website invites you to travel and find out how the Sun appears on each of the 8 other planets.
Mercury
Mercury is 60 million km away from the Sun. This is 39% of the distance from the Earth to the Sun. And the dawn on Mercury is 3 times brighter than on Earth.
Venus
The Sun, which is “almost” visible from Venus, is located at a distance of 108 million km (72% of the distance from the Earth to the Sun). Because of the thick gas clouds, it looks like a spot on a cloudy day.
Mars
The Sun is located at a distance of 230 million km from the Red Planet, and this is 1.5 times the distance between the Sun and Earth. But it’s not the distance that prevents you from seeing it, but the dusty winds rising right into the atmosphere.
Jupiter
And this is what the Sun looks like from the surface of Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter. Jupiter is further away: the distance is 779 million km (which is 5.2 times the distance from the Earth to the Sun). Sunlight passing through the layers of the atmosphere illuminates it with a ring of red light.
Saturn
Saturn is perhaps one of the most recognizable planets. The Sun is separated from Saturn by 1.5 billion km (the distance is 9.5 times greater than between our planet and the Sun), but this makes the star shine no less brightly. The rays are refracted due to crystals of water and gases, creating incredible optical effects, such as halos and false suns.

Mercury
Mercury is 60 million km away from the Sun, which is 39% of the distance from Earth to the Sun. And the Mercury dawn is 3 times larger and brighter than on Earth.
Mars
The Martian star is located at a distance of 230 million km, which is one and a half times further than the Earth. But it’s not the distance that prevents you from seeing it, but the dusty winds rising right into the atmosphere.
Jupiter
And this is what the Sun looks like from Europa, one of the satellites of Jupiter. Jupiter is further away, 779 million km and this is 5.2 times the distance of the Earth from the Sun. Sunlight passing through the layers of the atmosphere illuminates it with a ring of red light.
Saturn
Saturn is perhaps one of the most recognizable planets. The Sun is 1.5 billion km farther from Saturn (9.5 times further than the Earth from the Sun), but shines no less brightly. Rays from water crystals and gases are refracted, creating incredible optical effects such as halos and false suns.
Uranus
On Ariel, one of the moons of Uranus, there are cold, but incredibly large-scale sunrises. The sun barely warms here because it is located at a distance of almost 2.8 billion km, which is 19 times greater than the distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Neptune
The sun as it is is on Triton, one of Neptune's moons. The distance between them is 4.5 billion km (30 times greater between the Earth and the Sun). Huge geysers of dust and gas obscure the already small, tiny star.
Pluto
A small luminous point, this is exactly what the sun looks like on the most distant planet. The distance from Pluto to the Sun is 6 billion km (40 times more than the Earth from the Sun). The light on Pluto is 1600 times dimmer than on Earth, but still 250 times brighter full moon on the ground.
Without the sun, life on the planet is impossible. And thanks to this luminary you can see the incredible beauty of sunsets and sunrises. What does the celestial body look like on other planets?
