Hi,

I am pre-processing my images to study variable stars/asteroids light curves.

When I save my calibrated images or my normalized or registered image, the fits header is almost empty.

Is there a way to keep FITS header in each saved file please?

My image calibration FITS header:

SIMPLE = T / Java FITS: Fri Oct 23 10:19:59 CLST 2020
BITPIX = 16 / bits per data value
NAXIS = 2 / number of axes
NAXIS1 = 4008 / size of the n'th axis
NAXIS2 = 2672 / size of the n'th axis
EXTEND = T / Extensions are permitted
BSCALE = 1.0 / scaling to 16bit
BZERO = 32768.0 / offset data range to that of unsigned short
DATE = '2020-10-23T13:42:02' / creation date of calibrated-Light

SOFTWARE = 'Astro Pixel Processor by Aries Productions' / software
VERSION = '1.083-beta1' / Astro Pixel Processor version
CALLIGHT = 'calibrated-Light' / calibrated light frame
INSTRUME = 'SBIG STL-11000 3 CCD Camera' / instrument name
CFAIMAGE = 'no ' / Color Filter Array pattern
EXPTIME = 45.0 / exposure time (s)
GAIN = 0.82 / gain or ISO depending on instrument
AD-PED = 1092.35200 / adaptive pedestal from data calibration
FILTNUM = 1 / data combined from 1 filter
FILT-1 = 'Luminance' / filter used
INPUTFMT = 'FITS ' / Format of file from which image was read 

 

My initial FITS header:

SIMPLE = T / file does conform to FITS standard
BITPIX = 16 / number of bits per data pixel
NAXIS = 2 / number of data axes
NAXIS1 = 4008 / length of data axis 1
NAXIS2 = 2672 / length of data axis 2
EXTEND = T / FITS dataset may contain extensions
