The Flexible Image Transport System (FTS) file extension, is predominantly utilized for the storage, transmission, and manipulation of scientific and astronomical data. Developed by NASA in the late 1970s, this standardized format facilitates data interchange among the astronomical community. FTS is highly extensible, supporting various data types such as images, tables, and multidimensional arrays. Its widespread adoption stems from its capability to encapsulate metadata efficiently, enabling accurate and effective exchange of complex datasets among researchers and institutions.
The SIX file extension, short for "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Introduced initially to send bitmap graphics to DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, SIX later facilitated the transfer of soft fonts to terminals such as the VT220. This format encodes images using a series of six-pixel-high patterns, making it efficient for transmitting graphics over 7-bit serial links. Rediscovered around 2010, SIX remains in use with modern terminal emulators for tasks like video playback.
