Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
At high altitudes, the sky appears dark. It is due to the fact that there is no or very little light scattering. At high altitudes, the atmosphere becomes thinner, and the presence of particles decreases, so light scattering is minimal. However, light particles should be present between the paths of the light for scattering. As a result, passengers flying at extremely high altitudes see the sky as dark.
