The colour of my moon filter

Hey all,

I don't know what colour most moon filters are, but my one is green.
Seems to work Ok to my eye (ie - I don't get the glare of a million light bulbs when I look away :-), but I started wondering why the colour green was chosen.

We go to lots of effort to avoid light and use red light to preserve our night vision. Why aren't moon filters made red to keep our night vision going?
