The Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST) is a NASA-funded project to support and provide to the public a variety of astronomical archives, with a primary focus on space-based telescopes operating in the optical, ultraviolet, and near-infrared parts of the spectrum. MAST is located at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, MD, USA. TESS is one of the missions that MAST supports, alongside other missions like the Hubble Space Telescope, James Webb Space Telescope, Kepler, and K2. MAST is an Affiliated Data Center for the Gaia mission, is the archive for the PanSTARRS project, and plays a leading role in the Virtual Observatory. Having TESS data co-located with more than 20 other missions spanning many decades and covering many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum allows for powerful and unique searches and analyses. See the Data Search Tutorials section in this Archive Manual for some examples.
