Mr. Herzog, I require an answer from you. Most people viewed Orwell's writings as a warning. The harper regime and the goons treat them as a guidebook. |

Depends on the composition of their atmosphere. Planet - EVElopedia
Sadly, this information is not specified in the client (yet).
In due time, Legionnaires will be able to tell you. Maybe a planet's atmosphere will become relevant to your clone's survival in the future. GêÇ |

Are they all blue?
If so, please provide a full explanation with examples. Answers with physics and other science type stuff will be scored higher.

The skies of the different planets would depend entirely upon atmospheric composition, aerosolized particulate makeup and concentratration in the atmosphere, type of light emitted by the parent star, and type of drugs the person who is viewing said sky is currently on.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

Planets with a gaseous atmosphere and a reasonably transparent night sky (e.g. you can actually see the stars through the night sky) will all have a blue sky thanks to Rayleigh Scattering. In fact the sky is, from a spectral point of view, about equal parts blue and purple. However, since our eyes are more sensitive to blue light, wee see the sky as blue.
Any planet where (on the day side) you can distinguish surface terrain features (rivers, lakes, mountains, hills, etc.) from orbit and which has an atmosphere will therefore have a blue sky. If you can see through to the surface during the day, than MIE scattering due to particulates in the atmosphere is not a significant issue, and Rayleigh Scattering will dominate.
From there appearance in game, Oceanic and Temperate worlds would almost certainly have a blue sky. Lava worlds in game would also have a blue sky as you can actually see down to the Lava flows on the surface, meaning particulates and MIE scattering are a non-issue. Since the the massive volcanic processes readily apparent on said worlds would create some kind of gasseous atmosphere, and we've eliminated MIE scattering as a dominant factor, Rayleigh scattering dominates and you get a blue sky.
With storm worlds you can't see to the surface through the cloudcover so the sky would most likely be grey/black. White/grey during the day as it would be dominated by MIE scattering off the water or other particulates suspended in the atmosphere. Ice planets would have a blue sky if they harbored an atmosphere, or no sky (e.g. just the sun and a black backgorund) if they lack an atmosphere like pluto.
Plasma planets are described as having an atmosphere, but with the sprawling continuous plasma storms with no real life equivalent or observed scientific basis, it is difficult to speculate what one would see.
Barren planets in game are described as having little to no atmosphere but with some surface liquid/water vapor present. Here you'll see the most variation. With enough dust/particulates contributing to MIE scattering, you might get a martian-like atmosphere. With a thin enough atmosphere you might get a dark blue atmosphere. Or you might have no atmosphere at all and just have the sun on a dark background. |

Definitely the best answer so far.
I am grading on a curve, so this is the A+, so far.

The skies are blue. If they were green, we wouldn't know where to stop mowing. |

The color depends on a host of factors. We're used to a relatively clean part of space. No nebula or gas cloud around us, so there is no filtering of the light spectrum to earth. This we have a blue sky because that spectrum of light is absorbed in our atmosphere. Take a green item at sea level for example, go down around 50', and it's yellow.
The color in Eve is more related to the region and hence are the colors of the faction ships. I always like the blue-green of Federation space.
