I was only having some fun with the oil part of the letter, I knew that you probably did not use oil in outer space, I mean, after all, the general consensus in outer space would reflect that you would use environmentally friendly materials (...)

To read those color values, use something like Photoshop to sample inside framed boxes. some of these may be considered official, as well as the naming scheme. (...)
