  2. Cosmic latte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_latte

    Cosmic latte is the average color of the galaxies of the universe as perceived from the Earth, found by a team of astronomers from Johns Hopkins University (JHU). In 2002, Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry determined that the average color of the universe was a greenish white, but they soon corrected their analysis in a 2003 paper in which they reported that their survey of the light from over ...

  3. Impossible color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_color

    When colors are displayed in the CIE 1931 XYZ color space, additive mixture results in color along the line between the colors being mixed. By mixing any three colors, one can therefore create any color contained in the triangle they describe—this is called the gamut formed by those three colors, which are called primary colors. Any colors ...

    First image, color images and movie of Earth from space taken by a person, by cosmonaut Gherman Titov – the first photographer from space. [25] [26] 1963 KH-7 Gambit: First high-resolution (sub-meter spatial resolution) satellite photography (classified).

    Expansion of space accelerates and at some point becomes so extreme that even subatomic particles and the fabric of spacetime are pulled apart and unable to exist. For any value of the dark energy content of the universe where the negative pressure ratio is less than −1, the expansion rate of the universe will continue to increase without limit.

  7. Cosmic dust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_dust

    Cosmic dust – also called extraterrestrial dust, space dust, or star dust – is dust that occurs in outer space or has fallen onto Earth. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Most cosmic dust particles measure between a few molecules and 0.1 mm (100 μm ), such as micrometeoroids (<30 μm) and meteoroids (>30 μm). [ 3 ]

  8. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    In contrast, modern color science does not recognize universal primary colors (no finite combination of colors can produce all other colors) and only uses primary colors to define a given color space. [1] Any three primary colors can mix only a limited range of colors, called a gamut, which is always smaller (contains fewer colors) than the ...

  9. Quark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark

    SU(3) c color transformations correspond to "rotations" in color space (which, mathematically speaking, is a complex space). Every quark flavor f, each with subtypes f B, f G, f R corresponding to the quark colors, [79] forms a triplet: a three-component quantum field that transforms under the fundamental representation of SU(3) c.
