They moon has almost no color, just grey tones with a few exceptions (it actually turns out that the moon is closer to black than to white. I have seen it compared to a charcoal briquette. The sun is so bright, though, that it looks white against the dark sky). We flew color cameras to the moon on GRAIL in 2012 and got the same complaint about black and white photos.
