Oversimplifying here, but cameras dont copy the exact colors of the world, just try to get real close. It's hard enough on earth that every camera brand/sensor/color science has its own look. It gets more complicated when you point that camera into space where there's more random radiation and electromagnetic stuff going on. I think OP was more focused on the insane level of detail than perfect coloring

The saturation is just turned up to reveal subtle differences in color. The moon is naturally almost monochromatic with any sensor.
