We have provided reduced time-series for all these ERS targets and more. The data have been corrected for systematics from TESS such as background scattered light and jitter noise, and are available online at the above link. Together, let’s help JWST #UnfoldTheUniverse!

[TESS Science Support Center @TESShelp]

Are you ready to #UnfoldTheUniverse? JWST’s first science data is now public. JWST has observed planets, stars, galaxies and more, and NASA’s TESS mission is ready to support these observations! You can learn more about how TESS sees these objects with our new tutorials! 1/9

[TESS Science Support Center @TESShelp]

The TESS GI Office has produced new tutorials to demonstrate how TESS can see these objects, and provide users with corrected light curves of JWST’s Early Release Science targets. You can read all the tutorials here: https://t.co/aP4MXxzRNk 8/9

JWST takes a phenomenal image of the stellar nursery, the Carina nebula. As part of its all-sky search for exoplanets, TESS has also mapped this fantastic stellar birthplace.

JWST has just released a spectrum of WASP-96b, an exoplanet >1000 light years away, orbiting a Sun like star. NASA's TESS mission also observed WASP-96b in April 2022. You can see the light from the host star dip as TESS catches the planet transiting the star. #UnfoldTheUniverse
