The photo that Peter's link goes to, similarly is a little out of context. There is obviously a significant difference between the two velvet products, but again this photo does not present an astro situation. The only appropriate comparison is one where each material is put into a scope and both are then subjected to the same imaging and visual scrutiny/comparison.
I think you are taking the post out of context Alex. I'm merely showing that one material is significantly blacker and less reflective that the other. It is also a lot less hairy.

Oh and NASA seemed to like it
