Kepler’s view of the δ Lyr cluster, shown in equatorial coordinates. Each black circle is a candidate cluster member selected based on its position and kinematics (Figure 1). Of the 1201 candidate cluster members, 58 have at least one quarter of Kepler data. TESS has also observed most of the cluster, for one to two lunar months to date.
