Gaia end of observations - Gaia - Cosmos
The end of Gaia observations will be a sad day, but I think it's also something worth celebrating, as Gaia has been an incredibly successful mission.
And best of all, the data is completely open and free for anyone to access - it's a monumental triumph of open science. π

An artist's impression of the Gaia spacecraft.
The @esa.int Gaia satellite will take its final scientific measurements on Wednesday. π
This will conclude a 12 year series of continuous observations.
Larger Gaia data releases are still in progress, but Gaia has already had a HUGE impact on our understanding of the #milkyway.

Come work with me to coordinate satellite observations and make our orbital environment more sustainable!
(Kindly ignore the Oct 31 "deadline," and note that while it says La Serena, other locations are likely OK; clarification forthcoming.)
Qs welcome! π
