TESS Data Release Notes: Sector 60, DR85TESS Sector 60 observations include physical orbits 127 and 128 of the spacecraft around
the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were
downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near
perigee.

At TJD 2949.99, the spacecraft entered into safe mode, resulting in instrument turn-off
until TJD 2955.04. There are no FFIs, target pixel file data, or light curve data during this
time. During these times (as well as when the spacecraft is transmitting data to ground
systems) the data and timestamps in target-pixel files and light curve files are set to NULL.
One FFI from Camera 1 in orbit 127 was corrupted prior to downlink from the spacecraft
and could not be recovered. The FFIINDEX number is 00738895 (timestamp 2022358084201),
and no FFI file for Camera 1 was produced for this cadence.

In total, there are 20.01 days of science data collected in Sector 60.
