Tess Telescope Most Important Discoveries!

Humanity has many ways to observe the universe, so join us as we reveal to you the most important discoveries of the TESS Telescope!

8. What Is The TESS?
Before diving into telescope discoveries, let's understand the telescope itself. Meet Tess, NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. Launched in April 2018, Tess scans the entire sky for exoplanets. Orbiting Earth every 13.7 days, it captures diverse footage rapidly, surpassing its predecessor Kepler in performance.

7. A Trio Of Planets In A New System
In July 2019, TESS discovered three planets in the Pictor constellation, 73 light-years away. Dubbed TOI 270, they orbit a dwarf star, emitting bursts of light during transit. This finding underscores humanity's ongoing quest to understand the universe. Lead researcher Maximilian Günther noted, "This system is exactly what TESS was designed to find.

6. Black Hole Eating A Star
Black holes, born from collapsed stars, are terrifying yet wondrous entities in the universe due to their immense gravity. They can devour anything, even stars. Until 2019, we had never witnessed a black hole consuming a star, until TESS observed such an event in September of that year.

5. Earth-Sized Planet
For astronomers, the quest is to discover Earth-like planets, crucial for potential colonization. TESS, though targeting specific types, occasionally unveils promising candidates like HD 21749c.

4. Comets
NASA's fascination with comets extends beyond planets and black holes. TESS, initially aimed at finding planets, unexpectedly captured clear images of comet C/2018 N1 while in Earth's atmosphere. This comet, detected by other NASA equipment, offers insights into our own solar system.

3. Planet LHS 3844b
TESS and Spitzer teamed up to discover LHS 3844b. TESS spotted it first, revealing it's 1.3 times Earth's size, orbiting an M-type star every 11 hours. This find sheds light on planetary atmospheres around M dwarfs, a topic we've mostly theorized about." - Laura Kreidberg

2. Supernova
One of the important mission parameters of TESS isn't just to look for planets, but to look at a part of space for about a month and occasionally capture what's going on in that part of space.
Because of this, it can witness natural events occurring as they happen. Including the birth of Supernova.

1. The Future Of TESS
TESS, in just over a year, has already delighted scientists with its discoveries: planets, stars, black holes, and more. Principal investigator George Ricker lauds its productivity, far surpassing expectations. With NASA's commitment to advancement, TESS promises even more exciting revelations in the coming years. The universe awaits its next revelation.

Great report and great video.
Timely, relevant, interesting and very well made. I found it very informative and, overall, it was learning experience for me.
Just when I thought I was the smartest kid in the village (sure, right...LOL)....comes this fantastic video and I see and learn things that are so well put together and summed-up in this report about TESS. Thank you so much for this and your exceptional work.

I don't like cold weather but, 600°F is a little too warm. Is Tess part of the new space force observatory?

This would be the best of the best channel, but lately, you're getting a little greedy with all the ads!? Why am I seeing 6 ads for a 15 minute video?

My interest and curiosity would not be to colonize another Earth-like Planet, but to find Arien life, discover how different they are from us and what genetic or DNA matter they carry...

The only satterlights in space are on the end of a balloon or inside an aeroplane.

TESS will be more popular if it finds a diamond planet or any gemstones. Just Saying.

The TESS algorithm is not good enough to catalogue potential exoplanets. It is still working on its improvement till then human have to go through the data and catalogue the exoplanets. Anyone can sign up and help the team to find out exoplanets.
