The tess instrument is comprised of four identical cameras Tess monitors millions of stars for temporary drops in brightness caused by planetary transits
Tess was designed as a high precision photometer and not as an imager, as such the photometric stability and minimization of noise was more important than a compact point spread function (psf). As noted in a recent blog from our uspto leadership, we will be retiring the trademark electronic search system (tess) on thursday, november 30 Tess will be replaced by our new trademark search system.
