Tess

TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) is a space telescope launched by NASA to find planets outside our solar system, called exoplanets. It scans the sky for tiny dips in brightness that happen when a planet passes in front of its star, blocking some light. By detecting these regular dimmings, TESS helps identify potential exoplanets. Its goal is to find planets that could be similar to Earth, advancing our understanding of planetary systems and the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. TESS's discoveries help guide future research and missions aiming to study these distant worlds in detail.
