Subject: Why are there no color pictures of the Moon?

Everytime we see the Moon, it's in black and white. Even in the sky it's shown as black and white. Why can't NASA take color pictures of the Moon like they do Mars? Like we know Mars is red because they took color pictures of it. I want to know what the Moon looks like in color dammit!

On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

Because.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

The moon is still stuck in black and white just like the Earth was about 100 years ago. Don't worry, it will eventually turn to color just like our planet did.

Well, I would've kept this, but then I actually read the OP and realized he was obviously joking.

Still using a pump-action shotgun over 500 years in the future I see.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

This is because of the relativistic effect the Moon causes. The moon moves in phase with the harmonic motion of the Earth's rotation, causing the wavelengths of reflected light from the Moon to only appear as a mix of all colours i.e white

Everyone knows the Moon is made of blue cheese. No, not bleu cheese, blue cheese.

We want our color pictures now, NASA!

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

I saw it in orange one night.

It was probably Photoshop, though.

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Because the moon is not a planet.

Because if you use all 4 of your trolling brain cells and look into the night sky, you'll notice the Moon is black and white (and/or grey).

How can you point out that he's trolling while calling him stupid when the only reason you could think he was trolling was because you thought he was being intentionally stupid?

If that made sense.

Unless... Unless you're trolling me!
