    Sector Notes

    Noted Issue Description
    Processing issue Sector 59 data were briefly made available on 2023 January 18–19 before an issue was identified that required reprocessing. Data have since been reprocessed. The reprocessing has a minimal impact on the final light curves, but resulted in a different set of TCEs than initially released. Users should re-download the data if retrieved before January 19th, 2023.
    Spacecraft pointing The pointing in Sector 59 was set at +55.5 degrees in ecliptic latitude. Camera 1 and Camera 4 alone were used for guiding in both orbit 125 and 126.
    Scattered light In Sector 59, the Earth introduces scattered light signals at the very start of each orbit.
