You can now search for TESS data through the TASOC website as easily as you have been able to search in the TIC. Just click the "Data Search" tab at the top of the page.
You will be able to download all data from sectors 1 and 2, both from the SPOC and TASOC. And you will be able to get all lightcurves in ASCII format as well.
We have added some small code-snippets on how to load in FITS files in various languages (Python, IDL, Matlab) under "Documentation and Help".
In the future, the plan is that the TASOC website will also provide ASCII versions of light curves, as an alternative to the FITS files. These do use more disk-space than their FITS counterparts and will contain less information, so we would recommend to use FITS if possible.
We are pleased to announce the second release of TESS data for asteroseismology from the TASC Coordinated Activity T'DA.
For this release 79 TOI targets from TESS sectors 1 and 2 have been analysed. These targets are primarily of interest to TASC WGs 1+2 (planet hosting stars and solar-like oscillators). Please note that this data is optimized for asteroseismology, and therefore the planetary transit signals have been intentionally removed.
