Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
We know that the formation of blue sky on the earth is due to the scattering of light due to the earth's atmosphere, but as we know, there is no atmosphere in space, which is why the sky appears dark to the astronauts. The astronaut will not examine this phenomenon on the moon's surface because the moon has no atmosphere. Therefore will scatter no light, and darkness will arise.
