Attempt to JWST Data Analysis

Although we have astroML and astropy packages which are sufficient for data analysis. I will still still attempt to analyse JWST data using the STScI way.

import ginga
import astropy.io.fits as fits

# Load the astronomy dataset
dataset = fits.open('dataset.fits')

# Create a Ginga viewer
viewer = ginga.ginga.Viewer()

# Add the dataset to the viewer
viewer.add_data(dataset)

# Drizzle the dataset
viewer.do('AstroDrizzle')

# Save the drizzled dataset
viewer.save('drizzled_dataset.fits')

The import ginga and import astropy.io.fits lines import the Ginga and AstroDrizzle libraries.
The dataset = fits.open('dataset.fits') line loads the astronomy dataset into a fits object.
The viewer = ginga.ginga.Viewer() line creates a Ginga viewer.
The viewer.add_data(dataset) line adds the dataset to the viewer.
The viewer.do('AstroDrizzle') line uses the AstroDrizzle command to drizzle the dataset.
The viewer.save('drizzled_dataset.fits') line saves the drizzled dataset to a new file.

I am working on more solutions. Let me know if you find it useful.
