GPU version of tessbackdrop

scatterbrain

scatterbrain is our GPU hack for processing TESS images, see tess-backdrop for our current tool.

TODO

• Make starscene cupy
• Add files on Zenodo so we can load them if they aren't local
• Add docs to asteroid functions
• Add some tutorials for different use cases
• Come up with some diagnostics for backdrops/starscenes
• Check starscenes for multiple sectors
• Run on supercomputer
• Investigate using GPUs to run on super computer
• Increase the asteroid masking depth to mask fainter asteroids?
• Make asteroid_mask supersampled in time for fast, bright asteroids...?

NOTES:

• Consider swapping third order polynomial in StarScene to a low order spline for nicer priors and better variability removal?
  • Did this, now has the option. Overall, seems better to just use a polynomial.
