The 'colourisation' (foreign spelling) of astronomy photos is also misleading. I blame it on the allures of 'artist's conception' pictures like Bonestell's. Seems we prefer a fantasy universe.

how is returning colours to a monochrome photo misleading? if it's done to restore actual colours then this doesn't feel like a fantasy universe - quite otherwise.
