Abstract
Abstract We present a data set containing the light curves of all stars brighter than 16th magnitude in the TESS full frame images from the primary mission (Years 1 and 2; Sectors 1–26). This includes a total of over 150 million light curves, making it the largest set of TESS light curves released to date.
