Blue space ?

Post: # 9515Post bhuvan »

Hi All,

One of my friend asked this doubt about this passage

Our poor Earth became a basketball, then a billiard ball until it finally disappeared - or almost - from the screen. Instead, my vision was filled with the "sombre blue of space". I turned my head in Thao’s direction hoping for further explanation.

Whether the colour of space is blue? He should see it as black right?

Ya, you would think so, and from what I have seen space is so very very black, although looking at this chart there are different types of sombre blue

also the book is a translation, from french to english , I wonder if that is what he really ment...
