Going "by the numbers," TESS already has confirmed hundreds of exoplanets and discovered thousands more candidates. x.com/MIT/status/164…
Since TESS launched in 2018, George Ricker and his team have detected more than 6,000 planet candidates, including approximately 500 with their masses now established. mitsha.re/boee50Nv4OG

Did you know astronomers use TESS data to study our own Solar system? Learn how with 51 Pegasi Fellow @malena_rice, today at 2:30 Eastern on @OneGardenHQ!
Tomorrow I'm delighted to be giving a fireside-chat-style talk about the outer solar system to close out the "The Bright Night Sky" series! Many thanks to @OneGardenHQ for this unique opportunity :)
Check out my talk and all the others in the series here: onegarden.com/collection/the…

TESS isn't just for planet-finding--it can also teach us about stars! #TBT to a paper earlier this month by student @AstroBenCap and @MIT_Physics assistant professor @amvanderburg ✨
Very excited today to share this work from Ben Capistrant (@AstroBenCap) arxiv.org/abs/2209.03379 working with @msoaresfurtado and me! It is a study of young variable stars called "dippers" with @TESSatMIT!
