=== TESS === [[Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite|TESS]] was launched on 18 April 2018, and is planned to survey most of the sky by observing it strips defined along the [[right ascension]] lines for 27 days each. Each area surveyed is 27 by 90 degrees. Because of the positioning of sections, the area near TESS's [[Rotation around a fixed axis|rotational axis]] will be surveyed for up to 1 year, allowing for the identification of planetary systems with longer orbital periods.
