What on earth are amazing in their beauty and penetration sunrises and sunrises! However, on other planets, their natural satellites in our solar system every morning the sun rises and the day comes. Although, of course, the duration each planet has a different day, and the sunrise itself the luminary is very different from what we observe on Earth. Today we can see at least in photographs how these extraterrestrial sunrises.

For example, on Mercury, which is only 60 distant from the Sun million kilometers (39 percent of the Earth’s distance to a star) the sun shines three times brighter, and therefore the dawn itself is as much times more powerful.

But on Venus because of the thick gas clouds of the sun practically invisible, it looks like a spot in the sky in inclement weather. And this despite the fact that Venus is significantly closer to the sun than our planet (72 percent of the earth’s distance to the Sun).

Mars is 1.5 times farther from the star than the blue planet The earth, however, the sun shines there quite brightly and cannot be closed even dusty hurricanes that lift sand for miles.

Jupiter is far from the Sun, more than five times farther than from the luminary is the Earth. See how already the solar disk on the satellite of Jupiter – Europe seems to be a dwarf.

Saturn with its rings is the most amazing and mysterious planet. The solar system, however, it is further removed from the sun – in nine and a half times farther than our blue planet. But there is still the morning sun rules, especially refracting in the frozen crystals of gases and water, and therefore creating due to this fantastic optical effects like false lights and halos.

Very cold sunrises on Uranus (in this case, on its companion Ariel). Judge for yourself, this planet is 19 times further from stars than our blue planet Earth – almost three billion kilometers you need to run through the sunlight to reach this the planet.

But this huge distance fades in comparison with remoteness Neptune, which is “discarded” from the luminary by 4.5 billion kilometers (30 times farther than Earth). In this case, we see the dawn on Neptune’s satellite – Triton. The sun here looks like a little an asterisk, especially since it is also covered by its emissions dust geysers.

And finally, on the lifeless Pluto, which is six billion kilometers from the Sun, the star looks like a tiny dot, brightness which is 1,600 times less than the brightness of the sun on Earth. And yet less, even this star is almost three hundred times brighter than our moon.
