Observation Sector 14

TESS Observation Sector 14 is comprised of observations made during orbits 35 and 36 of the TESS mission. Observations of Sector 14 extend from the 18th of July to the 14th of August. The regions of the sky observed during Sector 14 are shown at right. The targets observed during Sector 14 are below.

Pointing

During Sector 14, the instrument axis is pointed to 280° ecliptic longitude and +85° ecliptic latitude.

The orientation of the camera array in celestial coordinates is:

RA (J2000): 276.7169°
Dec (J2000): 62.4756°
Roll (deg): 32.2329°

The coordinates of the centers of the fields-of-view of the four cameras will be given in the table below (in progress).

4	174.643653	71.301175	39.751479	128.295491	58.998311
All coordinates are degrees (J2000)

Map of TESS camera fields-of-view for Sector 14 in ecliptic coordinates. Camera 1 is red, camera 2 is magenta, camera 3 is blue, camera 4 is green. The field of camera 4 looks distorted because it is centered on the ecliptic pole. The thin black line is the ecliptic; the thick black line is the galactic plane.
