This morning's #TESScon2 session is a double header! At 10:30a EDT⏰ we'll hear about how TESS can collaborate with a fantastic set of new/future missions: @ESA_CHEOPS @NASAWebb @ESAArielMission & @PLATOMissionCon Tune in and bring your best questions about mission synergies!
We're starting things off a bit closer to home on this last morning of #TESScon2. Want to know what TESS can us about our own backyard? Tune into our solar system panel 40 min from now!⏰ Featuring @TheChedgehog, Matthew Payne, Róbert Szakáts & Deb Woods, moderated by András Pál
Day 4 of #TESScon2 starts bright & early with our panel on data analysis! Join us in one hour ⏰ and bring your best questions about how to handle TESS Data for our excellent panelists: @exofastupdates @afeinstein20 @rodluger & @amvanderburg, moderated by @meg_bedell
Happening one hour from now!! ⏰ Tune in and learn about the newest additions to the TESS FOV -- it's our panel on young stars and planets! Featuring @ruthangus @astronomcody @jasonleecurtis_ & George Zhou, moderated by @benmontet
Our second TESS-adjacent talk is happening right after the morning splinter sessions! Turn in at 11:45a EDT / 8:45a PDT ⏰ to hear Dr. Steven Levin recap what we’ve learned about Jupiter during the first five years of @NASAJuno mission
ICYMI: The videos from Monday afternoon's ExtraGalactic session (S2) and Tuesday morning's stellar astrophysics session (S3) are now available on our youtube channel #TESScon2 youtube.com/channel/UCMypo…
It's hump day at #TESScon2, but we've got plenty of excellent programming to help you power through! Starting w/ two stellar astrophysics talks and then we dive into splinter sessions: USPs, Lightkurve, SETI, Machine Learning, CHEOPS... you name it, we've got a splinter for it!
Coming up this afternoon (3:30p EDT / 12:30p PDT) is our first #TESScon2 panel! Tune in and drop your best exoplanet-related questions into the slack for our excellent panelists to discuss @jcbastro @johannateske @ThorngrenDaniel @Valencia_planet @317537rogers
In case you missed Monday morning's #TESScon2 session, or if it was just so great that you want to watch it all again, you're in luck -- Videos have now been posted to the conference youtube channel! youtube.com/channel/UCMypo…
Day two of #TESScon2 begins in 20 minutes ⏰ First up, a talk on how to listen close to the sounds of all those stars in the TESS data -- May Pedersen's overview of asteroseismology in the era of TESS!
Session 2 kicks off in <10 minutes ⏰ Come along as we delve into the furthest reaches of TESS data -- that's right, it's time for some extragalactic science!
We're up to 3662 active TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) thanks to a large and dedicated team of TOI vetters who examine each and every one of these by eye! @sleeplessinmit #TESScon2
Ready, set, GO! It's time for @TessSciCon2, with results from the first three years of the TESS mission. Full program here: tsc.mit.edu #TESScon2
TESS' upcoming ecliptic observations will be shifted up to 6 hours East -- that means we'll have even more time to try and follow up newly discovered planets from the ground before they set for the season! #TESScon2
Future TESS cycles are shifting to 200s Full Frame Images! Just imagine how much excellent science we'll be able to do when millions of stars and galaxies are imaged every 3 minutes #TESScon2
