What is the color of the universe?
What is the color of the universe? Or, to be precise, the visible part of the sky? This question arose when brave American scientists investigated the distribution of stars in neighboring galaxies. The answer is:
It seems that it is a shade of beige (Beige: # F5F5DC █ ) color. To find it, scientists averaged the colors of one of the most numerous sets of galaxies — a 2dF survey , which consists of about 200,000 objects. Of course, the resulting averaged spectrum produces radiation in all bands, but we can only perceive one. This “Color of the Universe” has become less blue in the last 10 billion years. This can only mean one thing: there are more red stars.

Among the applicants for the name of the color were "skyvory" (literal translation "heavenly bone"), univeige ("cosmological beige"), and the winner was the name "cosmic latte" - "cosmic coffee with milk".
Of course, specifications:
