A 15 × 15 full-frame image cutout centered on the target star TIC 92223525 (green star). The red circles represent the neighboring stars in the Gaia DR3 catalog with Tmag < 17, and the blue star represents the neighboring star TIC 92223526 we identified as the source of the observed candidate transit signal. With a separation of just ∼2 TESS pixels, we estimate that the light curve of TIC 92223525 was contaminated by 11.5% of the observed flux from the neighboring star TIC 92223526, which we believe to be an eclipsing binary.
