Downloading target from archive returns data for a different, nearby star
See original GitHub issueIt’s trying so hard to do a good job, but accidentally grabs a star 4 arcsec away (both have defined and downlinked apertures, which happen to touch each other)
from lightkurve import KeplerTargetPixelFile, LightCurve
tpf = KeplerTargetPixelFile.from_archive(6507433, quarter=8)

The star it gets is one pixel away from the one I want. My guess is that there’s a radius search behind the scenes, and there’s some bad conversations to and from RA and Dec and it’s not accounting for the fact that it knows the true KIC of the target I want? But that’s just a guess on my part.
Still ❤️ Lightkurve!
