Surprisingly many seem to be in real color: white, pink, red, orange, maybe brown, probably green, and yellow. (The well-known Neptune image is false color; Hubble deep-field is IR but that is redshifted so IDK, may be “real” color too.) Too bad white, pink and red are Earth’s atmospheric phenomena, of which only the aurora is really space-related, and green is just a satellite photo. Still, within NASA’s scope I guess.
Not gonna lie, using a different wavelength feels like cheating when it comes to obtaining a color.
Yeah… You can basically say “this is x-ray but represented in <any color>”

But isn’t that what colors literally/fundamentally are?
