Best Answer

The normal illumination of the sky results from sunlight that is scattered in the atmosphere by collision with air molecules or other particles, water droplets etc. In outer space, there is no atmosphere and hence no scattering of sunlight. Because the universe as a whole is expanding, light from distant galaxies tends to fade out into the invisible longer wavelengths, so we do not see stars in every direction that we look; most of the sky, therefore, is dark.

How does the atmosphere affect the light that is seen from the stars?

One way is through refraction. The atmosphere acts as a lens and bends the light so that the star appears in slightly different location then it would if there was no atmosphere. Another condition caused by the atmosphere is the "twinkling" of stars. If one goes out at night and sees the a star "flashing" brighter and dimmer the reason is that the atmosphere is not steady. Usually this is air moving from the heat of the day. It is comparable to when one looks over the top of a car in the sunlight or of a fire and sees the image shaking or blurring above it.
