I noticed that the north and south pole of its orbit satellite photographs over each period of around its orbit. I.e. two sites of the sky the total area of 1.28 square degrees to be obtained 4320 images. Do you plan to search for transiting planets in these data?
For comparison with the same area COROT field of about 2 square degrees, and time monitoring of up to 5 months. -------------------- |
