Convert FITS to PSD

The FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) file extension is widely utilized in the field of astronomy for storing, transmitting, and manipulating scientific data and images. Originating in the late 1970s, FITS was developed by NASA and the International Astronomical Union (IAU) to standardize the format for astronomical data. Its primary use is to archive astronomical images, spectral data, and other multidimensional data arrays, enabling efficient data interchange among scientists and astronomers. FITS files are known for their ability to store metadata and large datasets, making them essential for detailed scientific analysis and long-term preservation in research environments.

The PSD file extension stands for Photoshop Document, which is the native file format for Adobe Photoshop. It is primarily used to save graphics and images, preserving layers, masks, transparency, and other editing features, allowing for non-destructive editing. Introduced in 1988 with Photoshop's first release, PSD files have since become a standard in the graphic design and digital imaging industry due to their flexibility and support for various color modes and channels, including RGB, CMYK, and grayscale.
