Flexible Image Transport System (.fts)

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.
