  2. No the sky we see is our atmosphere and to be more clear The real color of the sky is black (space) that mean we suppose to see space when we look to the sky but we have an atmosphere.

    The blue color of the sky is due to Rayleigh scattering. As light moves through the atmosphere most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red orange and yellow light is affected by the air.

    However much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look some of this scattered blue light reaches you. Since you see the blue light from everywhere overhead the sky looks blue so this blue sky we see is our atmosphere and the space whatever else outside our atmosphere.

  3. i have nooooooooooooooooooo idea, lol, good luck with that

  4. Noo way.

  5. not surprised every on else said no nut space is everything. everything requires space that's why to thing cant be in the same space. the sky is actually the beginning of the vacuum called space but in reality space is just a vacuum of open space and the sky is space that is occupied by matter so if you think I'm wrong ask a physicist not an instructor an actual paid to do physics physicist

  6. No, the space is a mysterious place. I am wondering myself what gives space it's color, why is it black? and what is beyond our universe and our dimension.

  7. the word sky can mean both earth's atmosphere and OUTER SPACE. earth's atmosphere is different from outer space, outer space is vacuum, much colder and of a much lower pressure.
