      This just begs what else Gaia has observed, seen, and taken pictures of during its mission. The technology that humanity possesses today undoubtedly has and is denying the greater public the real truth of our universe and earth. Along with The US military's Space Fence program. Space Fence will use S-band radar and will track a larger number of small objects than previous space radars: "about 200,000 objects and make 1.5 million observations per day, about 10 times the number" made by existing or recently retired US assets. Tell me the military/government does not know way more than their letting on to know about extraterrestrial anomalies Etc... and the like. (Space Fence) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Fence#History

      It is ESA that uses experimental data. Not NASA. Basically when America puts something in space, it is a spectacular because media hype. ESA is science at the forefront, not the possible spectacular character of it. At CERN, that other multi national endeavour, people work the science. What came out was the American result 'we've found the Higs'. Hype versus science.

The hidden Natzi it’s claims to have gotten ahold of classified documents of the capture of Hans Khammler. The book claims he came to America to continue the program. Then we get to element 115 which is made in particle accelerators which is a very human invention… Lastly the circumstantial evidence of Teslas inventing the gravity amplifiers needed in the craft. I think the navy patents are for a future interstellar invention when tech catches up. The current craft I don’t believe are interstellar. I read an article long ago that those older craft would take 70 years to make it to the nearest star that Ai piloted craft would have to be sent. We don’t know exactly how long it takes to make element 115 for craft it’s possible it takes over a decade for enough for a small craft double for a cigar craft. So the hacker from the UK says we had 8 cigar craft that was in 2004 so maybe 9 or 10 now. Element 115 has to be made 1 atom at a time. He didn’t find info on how many smaller craft, but that the names of the crew looked like it may be multinational crew, but lead by America.

    I've been beating the war drum for Gaia for years now, it's SUCH an incredible, and important mission. Thank you for featuring it, I see a lot of people in the comments learning about its existence for the first time, which is *fantastic.*
    We're going to be sifting through all of the Gaia data drops for decades, literal DECADES to come. ESA nailed it on this one, and essentially everything else they do to be fair. I mean I personally think NASA and ESA should get, and deserve, _significantly higher yearly budgets_ than they're getting, but that's just a policy choice for all of our democracies to duke out-my point is, money spent on the European Space Agency and NASA alike are dollars well spent (I think you know what I mean when I say "dollars" lol, any and every currency is welcome to be put toward human space exploration)!!!

      What always amazes me in this type of mission is how such results can be reached with technologies (such as these CCDs) established in the '80/'90, produced in 2003, launched to space in 2013 and fully analyzed the results by the '20.
      It's mindbogglingly to think the grand time frames that this project have to account and consider for. They are at the bleeding edge of what is extremely reliable tech, but at the same time will have to produce amount of data that can and will only be analyzed with the tech of 20-30years in the future.

      JWST is an entirely different thing.
      Giai gathers data points using near ultraviolet, visible, and near infrared., and JWST takes high resolution pictures in multiple wavelengths of infrared.(not near infrared, which is MUCH easier)
      It wasn't even technologically possible to build JWST when they started. NASA had to literally invent 6 different technologies to be able to build JWST.
      Also, JWST was being designed in 1990. Giai wasn't started until 1993.

    I work in a research organization in the Netherlands where the Basic Angle Monitoring (BAM) system is developed and manufactured. You can see the base plates across the primary mirrors, also made from Silicon Carbide and instrumental to the accurate performance of GAIA. We have the Engineering Model on display, next to the flat reference mirror assembly that was used for the autocollimation with the telescope assembly. What I understand is that because of higher-than-expected thermal load from the computers, the main structure expands a bit more than anticipated and would result in inaccuracies in the measurement. With the BAM, this angular change is monitored and is used in corrections.

    In "real numbers" and "proper units" scales SiC is less then "half as hard" - in Vickers scale it's 25-36 GPa for SiC, 115 GPa for diamond, Knoop scale says 2300-2900 kg/mm2 vs 7000-9500 kg/mm2 respectively.
    (For CBN it's 48 GPa/ 3500-4750 kg/mm2, so still "room for improvement".)

    There is a ESA mission called LISA. It's a gravitational wave detector with the baseline of the earths orbit. the Pathfinder mission already launched and proved that it's possible to levitate the sensor block inside the satellite with enough accuracy to eventually launch the main mission with it's three satellites in sun orbit.
    It's an interesting story to tell - should it launch.

    Go Gaia!
    We could use a dozen more satellites with such amazing capabilities.

    And still, sadly, we have people declaring that chemtrails occur, the earth is flat, earth revolves around the sun, the moon is a hologram. 😂

    in a way the technology used in this satellite has a lot of similarities with the scanners used to create 3D scans of rooms and environments - they also spin around and take thousands of images, and with some clever math it's possible to measure the distance from the scanner to every point in a room and thus create an extremely accurate 3D model. It's commonly used in very old buildings where there exists no complete or accurate drawings of it, like ancient pyramids or temples and the like

    you can actually download the picture of all the datapoints from the Data Release 2 as a *.png file with a resolution of 40000x20000px that is 890mb big.

    Gaia took Hipparcos to a whole new level. Hard to grok that 1000 light years is but 1/100th the diameter of the Milky Way.

    4:42 - "...separated by 106 degrees"
    6:32 - "...separated by 108 degrees"
    So which is the correct angle?
