Watch the Sun Rise on Mars in A 360° VR Video. I made a simulation on how the Sun Rise on Mars in a stunning 360 VR experience. Just as colors are made more dramatic in sunsets on Earth, Martian sunsets would appear bluish to human observers watching from the red planet. Fine dust makes the blue near the Sun's part of the sky much more prominent, while normal daylight makes the Red Planet's familiar rusty dust color more prominent.
