Frisch aus dem ESO-Ticker:
Dear all
Version 1.0 of "the ESA/ESO/NASA Photoshop FITS Liberator" has just been
released and is available for download at:
http://www.spacetelescope.org/projects/fits_liberator/
As we state in the news release:
"For many years astronomical images from the world’s telescopes were
reserved for an elite of astronomers and technical people. Now anyone
with a desktop computer running Adobe® Photoshop® software can try their
hand at crafting astronomical images....
...
For the professional creators of astronomical colour images, the plug-in
revolutionises the workflow of the creation of colour images from raw
data and gives a huge boost to the image quality by giving access to the
full 16 bit (65536 colours) range of the observations...."
A fairly comprehensive set of educational material, "Fits for
education", is available at:
