What is atmospheric refraction of sunrise and sunset?

Atmospheric refraction is the bending of light as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. During sunrise and sunset, the Sun appears to be slightly above the horizon when it is actually below it due to this effect. This bending causes the Sun to be visible a few minutes before it physically rises and a few minutes after it physically sets.


Why does sun seem to appear two minutes before actual sunrise?

the sun is visible to us about 2 minutes before the sunrise & about 2 minutes after actual sunset because of atmospheric refraction.By actual sunrise, we mean the actual crossing of the horizon by the sun. The time difference between actual sunset & the apparent sunset is about 2 minutes. The apparent flattening of the sun"s disc at sunrise & sunset is also due to the same phenomenon .

It is visible, but not obviously as a planet. It is millions of miles away, and appears as a very bright star near the horizon, shortly before dawn or shortly after sunset. For some of the year, it is invisible because it appears too close to the Sun.
