Gaia: Here Comes the Sun

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This "return home" view is built from data collected by ESA's Gaia mission, which precisely measures the positions of stars. By observing the slight shift in a star's position over a year, Gaia can determine its distance. This allows astronomers to map our galaxy in unprecedented detail, providing a modern perspective on our place in the universe.
