TESS, this sweet little spacecraft, has exoplanet in its very name -- Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. So far, it's discovered more than 270 planets and more than 6,000 planet candidates. We love TESS💜 http://exoplanets.nasa.gov/tess #NASAExoplanets
and thanks to TESS, I got to observe a transit of an exoplanet from my backyard with a little #Unistellar #eVscope - absolutely thrilling. So much I made a gif of the event and made it my animated profile image!
