Simulations using non-science images: the face of Einstein

Simdata can be used to simulate any digitized image. In this example, we use the face of Albert Einstein.

Step 1: obtain your image. Typically from the internet.

Einstein.jpg

In this case, it is a jpg file.

Step 2: Convert your image to FITS

Various software programs have fits conversion. The Gimp (Gimp) was used here.
