observation - Color of planets

Here are some values found by taking the hue from images, and adjusting the brightness to fit the albedo:



Mercury #1a1a1a Yes it is really that dark



Venus #e6e6e6 or perhaps a bit darker



Earth tricky as it is a mix of colors, and changes over the year
seems to average out as about #2f6a69



Mars #993d00



Jupiter #b07f35



Saturn #b08f36



Uranus #5580aa



Neptune #366896



You might find these surprisingly dark. Planets look like bright dots against the dark sky
