Colorful Lavas
image by Francisco José Fernández Gómez, Spain
What if our eyes were much more sensitive to very faint colors? When we observed
we would clearly see the differences in titanium content in mare lavas and we could
investigate blue or white spots in the highlands, such as near Abulfeda. And imagine
how Jupiter and Saturn would appear! Maybe we should get medical researchers to
figure out how to enhance our color vision, although ordinary Earth scenes might be
unbearably garish.
