For those who are looking at doing data analysis with Rust in astrophysics, I have a crate fitsio (https://crates.io/crates/fitsio) which wraps cfitsio into rust, allowing the reading and writing of .fits files.

Nice. I mean I didn't wanna say but when I saw the headline my first thought was "basically nothing if you don't have a fits library"
