Useless information #68 – What color is the universe?

### Probably pretty dark, right?

Not exactly. 
For starters, there is more than one way to address this but ultimately researchers made an average of the colors emitted by 200 000 galaxies and the result was a kind of beige. This color has been called *“Cosmic latte”*.

Less Useless than you think. All the graphical designers and digital artist can use this information to understand better why colours on your computer screen may be different to colours when printing, or shown on another computer screen. Thanks for sharing.
