The document discusses how Hubble space telescope images are created and processed. It recommends downloading the FITS Liberator Photoshop plugin to view and work with raw telescope image files (FITS files). The plugin allows users to capture, colorize and combine FITS files to produce Hubble-style images. Links are provided to resources about the Hubble telescope, FITS files standards and processing tutorials.
