For those that don't know FITS is the RAW image file that hubble, and many telescope CCD's supply their data in.

NASA give a free plugin for Photoshop & Elements (it is also supposed to work on other software, check Google), and then download the RAW data from their Hubble site and have a play around.

You get to see that these lovely pics you see on the news need a lot of work, but the results make it worth the effort.

Also plenty of wallpapers, and other things on the site.

Excellent freebie Keith, and some nice wallpaper. Can't believe they're going to run the Hubble down now after all the amazing pictures and info it's given us over the years....
