In between the clouds and full moon I'm collecting images to use them to learn about stacking and processing. The default for opening .fits files on my system is gimp but by default it shows just one or two of the brightest stars. The FITS viewer seems like a good representation of the image but it minimizes on each file open and requires going back and forth between windows. It there a utility or application that assists in flipping through FITS images to give a quick evaluation of whether it would add or detract if included? Alternatively batch conversion to some other format for evaluation. Attached example of consecutive images, perhaps a passing car light?
