Not sure if you've seen the Expanse, but two comments:
1. The stills here look edited, possible to focus the UIs for the article. I may be misremembering but I don't remember being unable to make out characters on screen!
2. The protagonists in the show comandeer a Mars ship and most shots take place inside it. For narrative reasons, UN ships are bright, Mars ships are black/dark red (and Belter ships are broken, Star Wars rebels style), so the in-space look changes a lot (though the main set is that one Mars ship).
- bserge 5y agoUN ships were very well lit from what I remember. Martian and Belter ships less so (still, the Rocinante's crew quarters were fine and we've not really seen many ships outside of battle/emergencies) because they were adapted to lower light conditions on their homeworlds, I think that was said once if I'm not mistaken. The Martian delegation to Earth had to wear sunglasses all the time, for example.
- adeelk93 5y agoMore than just narrative reasons, I think it makes sense that the planet that receives half the sunlight would be building less brightly lit ships
