The ray path of <a title=\"Light\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Light\">light<\/a> from the setting Sun is highly distorted near the horizon because of <a title=\"Atmospheric refraction\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Atmospheric_refraction\">atmospheric refraction<\/a>, making the sunset appear to occur when the Sun\u2019s disk is already about one diameter below the horizon. Sunset is distinct from <a title=\"Dusk\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dusk\">dusk<\/a>, which is the time at which the sky becomes completely dark, which occurs when the Sun is approximately eighteen degrees below the horizon. The period between sunset and dusk is called <a title=\"Twilight\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Twilight\">twilight<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Locations north of the <a title=\"Arctic Circle\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Arctic_Circle\">Arctic Circle<\/a> and south of the <a title=\"Antarctic Circle\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Antarctic_Circle\">Antarctic Circle<\/a> experience no sunset or sunrise at least one day of the year, when the <a title=\"Polar day\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Polar_day\">polar day<\/a> or the <a title=\"Polar night\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Polar_night\">polar night<\/a> persist continuously for 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Sunset creates unique atmospheric conditions such as the often intense orange and red colors of the Sun and the surrounding sky.
