ArabiaWeather - NASA and most other space agencies use Photoshop to modify space images, and this is what NASA admits, but this does not mean that their images are fake, as the images are improved, changed or colors changed, but this is done for real scientific reasons, because that helps astronomers In their work.

 

Why do NASA and other space agencies modify the images?

Space images are taken mainly to gain information and explore the universe around us, but these images come in grayscale instead of colors, as black and white cameras are used to take pictures because they are more accurate than color cameras, and when it comes to collecting data, it is important to use the most accurate method. .

 

Of course, monochrome images are not as visually appealing as color images, and it is difficult to understand information in a black and white photograph, so scientists install multiple filter images in one image to bring the image closer to the true color.
