> This outlet documents theories and rumours circulating online. What is described here is not established fact and we do not endorse it: many of these claims are false or lack evidence. Each piece states what the evidence says.

**What the evidence says:** Misleading. The headline presents something well known as unexpected. NASA has published vividly coloured Moons at least since the Galileo probe's mosaic (images from 1992) and explains them in its 2003 and 2013 APOD entries: real compositional differences, exaggerated on purpose and, in the 2013 entry, calibrated against Apollo samples. The site's own article ties the colours to composition and does not claim anything is hidden. The 50,000-photo figure could not be confirmed.
