Is it obvious to everyone else? Do colored dots stand out in the sky? Or is it a subtle thing?

- MayeulC 6y agoTo me (not colour blind), they are not really coloured. Some are slightly more yellow or blue, but that's about it. They do, however, twinkle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkling And while twinkling, I catch glimpses of red, yellow, blue or others. Of course, this is very subjective and that wikipedia page doesn't mention colour changing at all.
- KineticLensman 6y agoIt is subtle and to the naked eye, at a quick glance, the stars in the night sky are all little white dots. Not a mass of little coloured dots.
- Out_of_Characte 6y agoIt probaly has to do with the low visibility of stars in general. Especially mayor european cities have so much light pollution that people, myself included, just see a few white dots at the night sky varying in brightness and ever so slightly in color if you pay attention.
