PROGRAMA PARA VISUALIZAÇÃO DE IMAGENS E ESPECTROS ASTRONÔMICOS DO TIPO FITS

This work presents a proposal to manipulate astronomical images and spectra of type FITS format commonly used in astronomy. It generates a colored image of objects in space (stars, galaxies, nebulae, etc.) with the concept of false color, from three gray scale images captured with different wavelength filters, and makes brief analysis of the electromagnetic spectrum to obtain some information, such as the composition and movement of the observed object. The software was developed in Java including some libraries to manipulate images, graphics and FITS file.
