Going Interstellar with TESS and Kepler

Going Interstellar with TESS and Kepler

For the longest time, space seemed like just a big, nearly empty place. However, as we learned more about the universe around us, we discovered other planets orbiting our Sun, and even planets that orbit other stars trillions of miles away. In this video, discover how NASA has explored the space beyond Earth and our solar system with spacecraft like Voyagers 1 and 2, and how we've discovered thousands of planets outside of our solar system -- also called exoplanets -- with space telescopes like Kepler and TESS.
