    The color images are combinations of 3 color filters, so if you see just a green stripe or bright red dot or strikingly blue smudge - that likely means that there is data missing in the other filters. For example, sometimes you'll see half of the image being plain green - this means data from the red filter is missing. When whole image appears dark red - blue filter is missing. These are tiny technical glitches
