High-Level Project Summary
Hello sirs,My name is Soumik and my teammate is Saikat and our team name is Jovian Explorers.We are working on the problem statement 'Visualising the Jovian system like never before'.Like when someone wants an authentic image of the Jovian system or Jupiter they can't process the raw images they find on the official JunoCam website.We're processing the raw images from the JunoCam to make them more understandable and likeable to the general audience.JunoCam (or JCM) is the visible-light camera/telescope onboard NASA's Juno spacecraft currently orbiting Jupiter. We're using Gimp to process the images and Documenting the whole process to make it easier for others who are interested in thi

Detailed Project Description
Our project is about visualizing the raw images from JunoCam and use it for research, artistic and fun purposes. Also, we're documenting the whole process so that anyone without prior knowledge about image processing can develop amazing images and use them as per their need. We hope to achieve funds by making and selling NFTs with those images, selling merchandise (like - t-shirts, wallpapers, artpieces etc.).
We used GIMP to process the images. The main reason behind using it is that this is open source software.
Space Agency Data
Took raw images from the following website :

Hackathon Journey
I want a lot of things from this hackathon. Like we had a short deadline so we learnt to work with a hurry and complete the work within the deadline. Also we learnt to work as a team, handle a team and solve the problems that arise within the team. We learnt how to pitch perfectly in front of the judges. A very special thanks to Think Again Lab for guiding us through the whole journey.
