Original Message The Earth has its very recognizable colors and the Moon should look exactly like the colors we see it in this same picture, you know, kinda of like an asphalt road--rather dark but not totally black.

Do you see how beautiful the Earth's colors are? How the clouds remain white and the oceans blue, even from a distance far away such as being on the Moon bombarded by the sun's light, the blue is still recognizably blue.

So why does the Moon take-on such a different and illuminate appearance from when we see it on earth? The Sun reflects on both spheres (moon & earth), both should retain their true colors. We should see the Moon in its true colors, like on that picture.

And please don't respond with childish remarks like; "the moon's surface possess reflective qualities!" They don't!!!! Because if that was true, the moon rocks brought back by Apollo should glow like the Moon you see in the sky with all the "daylight" around us, because those rocks possess the same qualities of the rest of that Moon. It would be like having a piece of that Moon you see bright in the "daytime" sky.

Moon rocks.

In fact, even the other planets should be seen in their true colors, "colors are colors?" Instead we have all heard of those few privileged who witnessed seeing planets have all similar exclamations; "the brightest thing in the sky is Jupiter!"

No friends, Jupiter's surface is like a wood grain with a huge knot running through. Jupiter would been seen in its true color and texture. Sure Jupiter is 1,600 times further away from earth then the moon is, but it would take 800 moon's to fill Jupiter and therefore we would see Jupiter the size of a half moon.
