If you're the kind of person who wonders what a sunset on Mars might look like, NASA has you covered. The space agency just released a new Vine (below) showing a dim sun sinking below a dark Martian horizon.

It's absolutely otherworldly, and not in a warm and fuzzy way.

(Story continues below.)

The Vine is a snippet from an existing NASA movie (below) entitled "I'm Dreaming Of A Blue Sunset," which was created using images snapped on Nov. 4-5, 2010 by the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Opportunity rover.
