Why Are There No Stars in Space?

Future Space

It’s a mysterious game of hide and seek: when we marvel at the pictures taken during manned space missions, a crucial detail always seems to be missing – namely, the stars! But why is that so? After all, it is easy to spot the thousands and thousands of twinkling stars in the sky on Earth! In fact, the missing stars in the Apollo photos are even cited as supposed evidence that the images were not actually taken on the Moon at all, but in a secret film studio – but does it have to be so conspiratorial? Or is there a much simpler explanation for the mysterious absence of the radiant heavenly bodies? And above all: What does an astronaut really see when he enters the endless expanse of space?
