We are so lucky to live on a planet where our skies look like this.

Accompanying video for those with 14 seconds to kill.

Alternate title: Fuck Mars. Let me see your skies do this, you dull and dusty sphere.

@Alice used to live on the southern California coast and I miss seeing consistent sunsets like this

@kerouac666 I wish for everyone to have the opportunity to see something like this in real life at least once so they will know it's not a filter and the sky really does get this vivid during the right conditions and time of day.

My own wish list item is the Northern Lights. I went to Iceland multiple times, but still haven't been able to see them for myself. But I’m going to keep trying!

@Alice @kerouac666 as a life long east coaster I've wondered about left coast living.

I am just not gonna see sunrises, but sunsets like this would be vunderbar!

(Wait did the ground just move? Panics)

@Alice @kerouac666

one of these days imma spend a month in the winter up somewhere in Alaska.

I've seen the northern lights 3 times, but I want MOAR

edit: either that or I'll just crash @sundogplanets or @beaveinflow 's place. I can bring my 47 cm reflector! We can work something out!

@Alice @kerouac666

“go outside! The graphics are amazing!”

@Alice @kerouac666 in a similar vein, I wish for everyone to have the opportunity to go snorkeling one time in their lives. It’s not just a screen saver; some coral reefs really do look this gorgeous and colorful. 🪸 🐠

@Alice did the goose get out of the barrel it was apparently stuck in? Lol

@pixelpusher220 😂 Pretty sure those are sea lions.

@Alice

The sea lions are a nice touch.

@Alice It was the best night I've seen to date. The good news is that we're approaching solar maximum, so aurora shows like this will be more common for the next couple years.

@Alice The good bit (not for us, of course) is that Earth will still be producing stunning sunsets like that for eons after people are extinct!

@bytebro @Alice don't worry, we'll have a good share of orange skies like this with the wild fires yet to come 🍿 (dark humor, sorry)

@Alice
Wow... that is amazing. Such a beautiful sunset. And I love seeing the birds flying around like that. So neat. 🥰

@Alice One must accept the night to enjoy the sunset. 🐾

@Alice
Now I feel left out. I wish my planet had skies like that!

@Alice >TFW you realize that beautiful orange sunsets are from all the pollution in the atmosphere
