Interesting question.. It seems to me that the black is due to the absence of light. So all the black areas in outer space are a locations where there is nothing. That is, locations where there is either no light source or no solid object capable of reflecting some light source (or locations where the reflecting object is too distant)...

Outer space is very dark, so that out eyes percieve it is totally black. Even astronomers are normally interested in the bright things such as stars, so thay adjust their cameras to show the stars and leave the bits between black. However, som mastronomers recently decided to measue the colour of the dark areas. At first they said that the actual colour was duck-egg blue, but then changed their minds to beige. Extremely dark beige, of course, but beige.

Lets go back to out science class days... In all aspects, black is the abscents of all color/light and or energy. This means that it takes energy to produce a color like green, or red, or blue, or anything. Now space is so vast and infinate, that there is not enough energy in to have color everywhere, hence the reason why we see black, our special abscents of color and energy, and not green.
