Topic : What has Gaia done for us (that’s the ESA Gaia mission, not the Greek goddess!).
This space telescope was switched off earlier this year after a 10 year plus mission. Although the observation phase has ended the data analysis continues.
So, what have we learned so far from Gaia and what will future data tell us.
Come along and share the evening with us, all are welcome. Usual time and place: 7:30pm, upstairs in the Hen & Chicks, Abergavenny
