Artemis II reveals a new mystery: What color is the Moon really?

NASA's Artemis II mission has raised new questions about our perception of the Moon. A major debate among scientists concerns the Moon's true color, as reported by Space.com.

During the mission, the far side of the Moon was observed. Astronauts returning to Earth stated that the Moon is not just a simple gray object, but also contains shades of brown and green.

Green minerals observed in the Aristarchus Plateau region have particularly sparked great interest among scientists. Experts note that these substances could provide important information about the magma chemistry of the Moon's inner layers.

Scientists believe that the astronauts' verbal observations are more valuable than images sent by robots, as the human eye can more accurately distinguish differences in color and brightness on the lunar surface.

NASA experts say these "colorful" observations could change current perceptions of the Moon's geological history.
