What is the scientific explanation for the optical illusion of the sun appearing to rise and set over the horizon?
The optical illusion of the sun appearing to rise and set over the horizon is due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins, it creates the illusion that the sun is moving across the sky, when in reality, it is the Earth that is moving. This phenomenon is known as sunrise and sunset.
Why do we see the sun rise before it is over the horizon?
We see the sun rise before it is actually over the horizon due to a phenomenon called atmospheric refraction. As sunlight passes through the Earth’s atmosphere, it bends, or refracts, allowing us to see the sun when it is still below the horizon. This bending of light means that the sun appears to be higher in the sky than it truly is, making it visible to us a few minutes before it officially rises.

At the North Pole the sun will rise above the horizon on and set below the horizon on?
At the North Pole, the Sun will rise above the horizon when spring starts, and it will set at the start of autumn.___________________________If you are at the north pole, then the Sun will rise about March 19, and set about September 23.I know, you expected to hear "March 21" and "September 21", right? Well, the fact is that the Sun's light is refracted around the Earth by the atmosphere; when we see the Sun peek over the horizon, it is ACTUALLY a couple of degrees BELOW the horizon! Celestial navigators have to apply a small correction to observations that are within about 15 degrees of the horizon.This leads to an interesting quirk; an observer at the south pole and an observer at the north pole will BOTH see the Sun as being just above the horizon!
Is sun rise or moon rise when the sun or moon breaks the horizon or when the entire sun or moon can be seen by the naked eye?
Sunrise (and moonrise) is when the leading edge of the sun just breaks the horizon, and sunset is when the trailing edge of the sun just sinks below the horizon. Observations may differ slightly from calculated times, since air conditions will effect the bending of the light
