5 Extreme Sunsets -- The International Space Station and Beyond

No matter where you are in the world, sunsets have a special, colorful place in the experience of mankind. The reds, oranges and yellows make the horizon look like it's on fire, while the frequent occurrence of sunsets reassures us that the earth isn't being set ablaze daily. This is why people love sunsets, why they make every evening a comforting cycle of panic and reassurance. Could anything be better?

Yes, because now we've got EXTREME sunsets. Boom! They'll make all your previous sunsets look like they were shot in black and white.

Now sit back, relax and pretend you're Luke Skywalker gazing at some binary suns after a hard day of nerf-herding.
