SpaceX to launch NASA’s space telescope for planet search
Elon Musk-led SpaceX is set to launch NASA’s space telescope called TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) to search for other planets orbiting distant stars. NASA’s TESS will monitor 200,000 of the nearest stars using the same method that enabled Kepler’s spacecraft to spot 2,600 confirmed exoplanets. It is scheduled to launch on April 16 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
