Scientists used a @nasa supercomputer to analyze 80 million stars observed by the TESS spacecraft to find eclipsing multi-star systems. Such eclipsing binaries help inform detailed measurements of the stars’ sizes, masses and temperatures. https://go.nasa.gov/40ZucPH #NASAExoplanets
Astronomers found the first six-star system where all of the stars participate in eclipses, a discovery made by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The system is about 1,900 light-years away in the constellation Eridanus.
