Answer 2

The assertion is true but the reason is false.

• Because the sky appears blue when the scattering of light takes place.
• As there is no atmosphere in space and hence light does not scatter into its constituent colors that is why the sky appears dark instead of blue to an astronaut in space.
• This phenomenon is an example of a scattering of light.

Scattering of light is the phenomenon in which light rays get deviated from their straight path on striking an obstacle like dust or gas molecules, water vapours etc. Scattering of light gives rise to many spectacular phenomena such as the Tyndall effect and the “red hues of sunrise and sunset”.
