Cosmic Latte: The Beige Hue of the Universe
Astronomers have determined that the average color of the universe is a shade of beige known as 'cosmic latte' (hex code #FFF8E7). This finding, derived from analyzing 200,000 galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, indicates that the cosmos has become less blue over the past 10 billion years as redder stars have become more prevalent. The color was named through a public contest, with 'cosmic latte' winning against entries like 'skyvory' and 'univeige.'
