What does "%s %s" mean?

Question

I found an exercise online, it's about printing the first color of the list and the last color of the list.

code:

color_list = ["Red","Green","White" ,"Black"]
print(("%s %s"%color_list[0],color_list[-1]))

output: Red Black

so did "%s %s" remove the quotation mark for some reason? is that all it can do? cus i don't understand how it works, or how i might use it in a future project.

The language used is Python.
