A striking-fleeting moment encompasses a sunset.

The colors melt into one another becoming a whole being, becoming one.

Whether it's orange or pink or yellow meltings, the same sun rises, and sets, in a continuous cycle on an annual basis.

The rise and fall isn't rocket science. It's due to the completed revolutions of the Earth around the sun. When the earth nears it's completion of a lap, the largest star in the universe begins its descent on our planet, which humans marvel at.

The intertwining colors and ombré sky - lights up the inner linguistic passion of artists, romantics, and daydreamers.

But is the rise and fall of this great star symbolized purely through imagery?

Or is there more to these sun spectacles than meets the eye?

Solar eclipses. Daily rises and falls. Lunar eclipses. These events are spectacular for show, but the true sacredness lies in their scientific and rhetorical appeals.

Why do sunsets change colors?

Why are sunrises earlier in summer?

These questions ponder ordinary folk, and can only be answered through research and dedication.

Sun spectacles encompass the connotative meaning of the words "magical" and "rare", although these natural occurrences are the farthest from that.

Sunsets may seem rare and "magical", but the element to marvel at is the scientific reasoning behind these events - because it is from the empirical fathoms that an air of adventure and inquiry is set - that evolves around one of the most mysterious wonders of this blessed earth.
