contents The real locus of the moduli space of stable genus-zero curves with marked points, $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,{n+1}}}({\mathbb R})$, is known to be a smooth manifold and is the Eilenberg-MacLane spaces for the so-called pure Cactus groups. We describe the operad formed by these spaces in terms of a homotopy quotient of an operad of associative algebras. Using this model, we identify various Hopf models for the algebraic operad of chains and homologies of $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,{n+1}}}({\mathbb R})$. In particular, we show that the operad $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,{n+1}}}({\mathbb R})$ is not formal. As an application of these operadic constructions, we prove that for each $n$, the cohomology ring $H^{\bullet}(\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,{n+1}}}({\mathbb R}), {\mathbb{Q}})$ is a Koszul algebra, and that the manifold $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,{n+1}}}({\mathbb R})$ is not formal for $n\geq 6$ but is a rational $K(π,1)$-space. Additionally, we describe the Lie algebras associated with the lower central series filtration of the pure Cactus groups.
