If there were no atmosphere at all, the sky would be black. If there were some other kind of atmosphere, the sky would be colored according to the make-up of the atmosphere.

Explain why the sky is blue during the day?

The sky is blue because air scatters blue light more than it scatters red light. So, when you look up at the sky (the sky, not the sun) you are looking at a portion of air. That air has scattered blue light so blue light is what enters your eyes.


Why is the sky blue and not black like space?

1. Outer space contains virtually no gas/dust to scatter light. Outer space is black. 2. The sky is blue because that's the colour of air (mostly nitrogen), which is not totally colourless. You can see this effect looking at distant (10 km-plus) mountains. They have a blue tinge (caused by the intervening air between you and the mountains) known as atmospheric perspective. 3. If the sky's colour was due reflection from the oceans, then it would be white above Antarctica, which is snowy white. 4. If the ocean was blue because it reflects the sky, why does it still look blue-ish when under a totally clouded-over sky? The ocean is blue for the same reason the sky is blue: the sky is blue 'cause that's the colour of air, the sea is blue 'cause that's the colour of water.
