Why Is That Forest Red and That Cloud Blue? How to Interpret a False Color Satellite Image
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/FalseColor/page1.php
A photograph is made when light is focused and captured on a light-sensitive surface (such as film or a CCD). A satellite image is created by combining measurements of the intensity of certain wavelengths of light, both visible and invisible to human eyes.
