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 Sun Raster (SR) file extension, is a raster graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems for use on their SunOS operating system. This format, which stores black-and-white, grayscale, and color bitmapped data, was widely used in UNIX-based systems and supported by various imaging applications. The Sun Raster format includes a header, an optional color map, and the bitmapped image data. Although it does not support transparency, it remains a simple and widely distributed bitmap format.
