For some reason this small comment made me very sad. I'd hate to imagine that our human desire for sensationalism could make the sight of outer space bland to a desensitized public. I have the APOD set as my phone's background every morning and I am always astounded at the incredible array of colors and the degree of contrast. I never really thought that I was being fooled.
It sucks that I really do think the non-false color image is boring, because that should be really exciting to someone who enjoys thinking about the universe like I do. Although I still think my mind would fucking explode if I ever got to go deep into space.
