Abstract
The original Kepler mission detected 18 pulsating subdwarf B (sdBV) stars, K2 observed 161 of our proposed targets with 41 sdB stars found to show p- or g-mode pulsations, and TESS has observed about 1,000 of our proposed targets. All these data should provide ∼300 sdBV stars, from which asteroseismology will provide a host of measurables. Combined with temperatures and gravities (and radii and masses from GAIA parallaxes!), we have a powerful set of observations with which to compare models. Here we review our seismology progress with sdBV stars.
