Vedclass · Answer

(A) The sky appears blue from the surface of the Earth due to the scattering of sunlight by the atmosphere (Rayleigh scattering). However,in space,there is no atmosphere to scatter the sunlight. Since there is no scattering of light,no light reaches the astronaut's eyes from the direction of the sky,making it appear black. Therefore,the correct option is $A$.
