Because the Moon has no atmosphere, there is no reaction of molecules to the Sun's rays, as there is on Earth during the daytime. If the Earth had no atmosphere, the stars would be visible all the time.

Why is the sky black on the moon?

The sky appears black on the moon because the moon has no atmosphere to scatter sunlight like Earth. On Earth, the atmosphere scatters sunlight in all directions, creating the blue sky we see. But on the moon, without an atmosphere, there is no scattering of light, resulting in a black sky during the lunar day.

Why is the sky on moon appears to be black?

Well, if the question was supposed to be "If I am on the moon, why would the sky appear to be black?" then I would respond "because there is no atmosphere or water to refelct the blueness of the ocean." Besides, how do you know its black? Are you an astronaut? If you are then I feel you would not need to ask this question on answers.com. If you are not an astronaut, which is the most likely case, then I sugest you pursue becoming one since you seem interested in it so much. Best of luck to you becoming an astronaut with the US space program (also kown as NASA) losing funding. I hope this has been helpful and that you become the best astronaut the world has ever known.


Why sky color of the moon is black?

many people think that the sky is blue because of the reflection of the earth. that is wrong. the sky is blue because of the gases produced in the sky. my point is, the sun goes down at night, and without light there can be no color. the only color that can be produced without light is black. there you have it. :)


What is the sky color of the moon at night?

The Moon does not have its own light source, so its color at night is reflective of the sunlight it receives. The sky surrounding the Moon at night can vary in color depending on atmospheric conditions and location, but it is typically dark blue or black.
