This is true of all digital cameras which have 3 separate color sensors or which take three exposures with filters on them. Even color film has 3 reactive types of color carriers. Even your eyes sense colors separately.

While it's true that astrophotographs don't look like what our eye sees, that's just a regular color photography issue.
