If we can see the Milky Way on earth when there’s dark skies, why can’t we see it from the moon? All the videos and photos I’ve seen, it’s just black with no stars.
In: Physics
There are two main reasons.
First is the same reason we don’t see stars during the day on earth, the sun is so much brighter than the rest of the stars that it is hard to see them.
Second is how cameras work they take in as much light as you tell them to, if you were able to see the stars in say the moon landings, you would not be able to see the people at all. It would be to bright.
