It could be any of the eight planets that are not earth.
Three of them are not visible to the naked eye. Since the questioner is obviously no astronomer, that narrows the answer down to one of five.
It could be ...
Mercury,
Venus,
Mars,
Jupiter, or
Saturn.
We'd have a fighting chance at a definitive answer if the date of the observation were specified.
It could be the planet Venus, often referred to as the "evening star" when visible in the western sky after sunset. Venus is one of the brightest objects in the sky and is frequently mistaken for a star.
That would be Venus.
That actually not a star but the planet Venus.You could also be referring to the planet Mercury. It can be seen just before Sunrise and just after Sunset. As mercury is nearest planet to the Sun, it is always seen very close to the Sun in the Sky. We can't see it in the morning because the is too bright and at night it is below the horizon. Hence, it is visible only for a few moments just before Sunrise and just after Sunset very near the horizon.
A Martian sunset is a phenomenon on Mars where the sun sets below the horizon, creating a reddish-orange glow in the sky due to the scattering of light by Martian dust particles. The thin atmosphere on Mars allows for unique and vibrant sunset colors compared to those on Earth.
The sun appears to set earlier on the east coast compared to the west coast due to the curvature of the Earth. As the Earth rotates from west to east, areas on the east coast experience sunset before regions to the west. This difference in timing is a result of the Earth's rotation and the planet's shape.
In August 2010, the planets Venus, Mars and Saturn are visible low in the west at sunset, while the planet Jupiter rises in the east at about 9 PM.
Sunset in the West was created in 1950.
west is the sunset because of the gravity of the earth! and because of its rotation
It could be the planet Venus, often referred to as the "evening star" when visible in the western sky after sunset. Venus is one of the brightest objects in the sky and is frequently mistaken for a star.
Venus is currently visible as a very bright evening star in the night sky after sunset. It is the third brightest object in the sky after the sun and the moon. Venus is often referred to as the "evening star" when it is seen in the west after sunset.
That would be Venus.
The West.
Yes. With the exception of the geographic north and south poles the sun rises from the easterly coordinate. Depending on your latitude and the time of year it will be more or less nearly due east.
In the West
West
It depends on the time. For example, around March 22, the sun is setting to the west.
The sunset!
