List of exoplanets discovered by TESS

Sign in to edit

This page contains a list of extrasolar planets that have been detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). So far, 25 extrasolar planets have been confirmed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. Most of the planets detected so far orbit extremely close to their host stars. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite is expected to find over 20,000 extrasolar planets, compared to the 3,800 exoplanets known when it launched.

TESS, launched on April 18, 2018, is designed to survey the brightest stars near Earth for transiting exoplanets over a two-year period. The TESS satellite uses an array of wide-field cameras to perform a survey of 85% of the sky. With TESS, it is possible to measure and study mass, size, density, and orbit of a large group of small planets, including a sample of rocky planets orbiting within the habitable zones of their host stars.
