Is it really with those colors?

The saturation is increased, but looking at the moon through a telescope you can barely see some faint blue/tan colorations that line up with this pic. The blue areas have more titanium minerals and the tan/orange areas have more iron

Thank you! I never knew that before. Titanium wow.
