TIC 300380196
Eclipsing binaryProbably known
Notes
WARNING: same period as the known variable ASASSN-V J072319.96-663628.6 69" away; the signal is probably its light leaking in.
Found automatically by hunt.py in TESS sector 32 (flagged in 17 sector(s)). Detection score 196.4.
Not in VSX, ASAS-SN or ZTF variable catalogues at the time of the search; Gaia DR3 lists it as a variable-star candidate.
Unchecked by hand yet: verify the period, nearby stars and a wider catalogue search.
