No atmosphere - therefore sunlight is not diffused, sun becomes almost a point light.
No nearby surfaces to reflect light back.
The above makes space look kinda like early CGI with no global illumination.

Isn't this what space actually looks like, a sheer black void?

there are lots of things in space. cameras make it look like a void because of the exposure settings. everything would look too dark if they turned it down

Very few people have been in space, so we have no point of context.
Space is quite literally nothing like what we experience on the Earth.

Yes but IIRC it's not actually as vibrant or visible as one thinks

This.
It's also why many mistake mountains for hills in photos from the surface of the moon. Without an atmosphere to scatter light, it's difficult to judge scale and distance.
There are also no recognizable objects of known size, such as a tree or shrub. Rocks and craters are fractal in nature, a big one looks similar to small one if you have no sense of scale.
In pic related you instantly understand the distance because of the atmospheric scattering causing the distant mountains to appear hazy and blue.

Just imagine the night sky without any atmosphere.
It must be beautiful.

Space may be the final frontier, but it's made in a hollywood basement.

Nah, you're just a retarded spacefag redditor in denial. I bet you think those photoshop-created images by NASA are real pictures from space too.

You're just being dishonest about his answer because you're facing extreme cognitive dissonance, retard. You're like the jewish supremacist apologists who argue the talmud isn't their holy book and it's just a collection of rabbis arguing and they don't follow it (they do follow it).

I think rather that it's too real, but you choose to accept it or not, to me it's creepy, similar to thalassophobia, try it in VR, when you see giant space rocks floating next to you and you realize they are pulling you towards them with their weight. Because then it's so clear, space is a huge black void filled with floating things that exert gravity. And the gravity can trap or kill you. Like we are trapped by it here on earth. It's all pretty creepy when you think about it, the enormity of stuff underneath you that is actually pulling on you all the time. But here we are blind to it because we never arrived here.
