Hi all,

Thanks,

Hugin cannot read FITS files directly, but converting FITS images to a format the Hugin can read, e.g. TIFF, isn't difficult. ImageMagick [1] is one such utility that can do the conversion. This is based on the assumption that your FITS files are actually images (FITS is a versatile contain format that can also store things such as data tables instead of images).
