tesscube

tesscube is a package designed to help you obtain TESS data by cutting it out of the FFI cubes at the Barbara A. Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST).

tesscube works with data that is available in the cloud, and will return TESS data in formats similar to the NASA TESS official mission products. You do not need any login credentials to use tesscube, and can use this tool by pip installing either on your local machine or in the cloud.

Note

Data formats tesscube will return astropy native objects, including astropy.fits.HDUList objects, and astropy.wcs.WCS objects. You can work with these directly, or load them into lightkurve.

Changelog:

• Fixed barycentric timing correction with lkspacecraft package

• Added from_name method

• Added ability to use “TICA” FFIs. This is experimental and might be buggy.

• Patch removes the un-needed fitsio dependency

• Initial v1.0.0 release of tesscube.
