Which is weird that black isn't just a picture of the night sky. Has to be some fancy IR Hubble image that's been redshifted back to "true" (so doesn't that make it technically real-color again even though it's been manipulated? 🤔)

It's also unrealistically bright. That far from the sun is about 900x dimmer than earth.

👀

Yeah, though it looks like the cyan (which would be ~500nm) is actually false color UV image, judging by the same color scale as this https://www.nasa.gov/image-detail/5-3-2024_sdo_x1pt6_flare_131/

While you're correct, the "specific wavelength" images still seem like cheating. Sure, purple would be pretty hard otherwise (and that purple color is a typical false color for nebulas, while the sun one is not typical for most people to see), the cyan shouldn't be hard to do. There's plenty of satalite pictures of earth with the right color, or the atmosphere. Maybe they don't want too many earth pictures, but they could ditch the white clouds for Pluto or something. White is easy. Green would be harder to replace.
