Some astronomers counter that it (the universe) is pretty much just the black and white you see when you step outside at night, and that our view of color only makes sense in terms of the human eye anyway. BTW, this color is #A2E8CE for all you web programmers out there.

I'd really like to get away from Boston's nightly purple glow and see the Milky Way sometime soon.
