Look at the Hubble deep field images. They pointed HST at a pitch black postage stamp-sized point in the sky and left the shutter open for 10 DAYS to gather as much light as possible. What we see from the ground, at night, is just blackness. No look up an image of Hubble deep field and you'll see what is really there.
Without artificial lights or atmosphere, wouldn't space offer a more stellar view of the stars that would inspire an astronaut at some point to direct his camera. I mean if I go camping away from the city and in spite of earth's atmosphere, I'm blown away. I set the camera with the shutter open for a minute or so, and get some good pictures. Is supposedly the view of the cosmos from space just meh and no astronaut has ever been inspired to snap a pic or even talk about it. Why is that?
People keep forgetting there is a perpetually burning nuclear bomb a million times larger than the earth hanging out there.....the sun
The spacewalk happened in sunlight
Space is black because a vacuum has literally nothing to reflect photons back. People think black means darkness, which is not so.
My point is I've never heard of an astronaut taking a picture of the stars.
Look at the ISS livestreams on YouTube. During the night half of the orbit you can see stars, aurora, etc
