The joint distribution of known asteroids observed during TESS Years 1 and 2. The magnitude range reflects the limiting magnitude of V < 24 used when querying JPL Horizons. The orbit inclination values are dominated by asteroids near the ecliptic plane. The peak in the distribution of perihelion values corresponds to main-belt asteroids.
