SUMMARY:The Gaia mission
DESCRIPTION:The Gaia mission\nDr. Elena Pancino\n\nGaia - the ESA cornersto
 ne astrometric mission - was launched in December 2013, with the goal of c
 ensing the Milky Way population in a 6D space (positions and velocity) of 
 10^9 point-like obects, with errors 100-1000 times smaller than Hipparcos,
  with three color magnitudes and spectra as well. The scientific impact of
  its data will be large in many fields of astrophysics, from Galactic scie
 nce, to Solar system objects, to stellar astrophysics, to galaxies and Qua
 sars; from the distance ladder revision to fundamental physics. I will des
 cribe the mission concept, the scientific goals, and the present status of
  the mission, with special attention to the flux calibration of Gaia data.
