The Milky Way covers most of the graphic with search areas overlaid. TESS's area is a central orange dot and a large lighter orange radius, covering a large portion of the bottom half of the graphic with the words "360 degree sphere, 150 light years," meaning a 150 light year radius from Earth.Kepler's area is in yellow, a small cone starting at the orange dot in the center and branching to the left, the description for Kepler states "12 degree cone, 2,000 light years." And Roman's area is a blue cone reaching from the orange dot to the bright spot at the center of the Milky Way with the description, "1.6 degree cone, 25,000 light years."
