I mean, space also looks like this:

1000025306

Point being: the statement "space looks like X" doesn't make any sense because space looks like literally everything.

I mean, space doesn't look like anything.

Also true. Even truer, in fact. Still validates classic Dr. Who having trash production design.

What do you mean "Dr. Who trash production design"? I really can't understand why you would say "Dr Who trash production design"! /s

Most surfaces in space look like a quarry. So that's fair. You could also include the ones that are on fire and the ones inside of some sort of toxic cloud.

But the exceptions are the most interesting parts. There's a reason there's not much entertainment out there about people stranded in deserts, mountains, and open oceans that feature not a single encounter with life.

I've played Star Citizen, roaming dead space and lifeless planets gets old fast.

Is most surface area on planets/asteroids, or on stars?

Walkable and filmable? It would be the rocky ones.

Tecnically, this photo is taken in space.

I like your point, but to be pedantic, I think in this context "space" is short for outer space.
