Aurora has the opportunity to expand our support to Gaia within the Science and Robotic Exploration Directorate DSRE. Aurora currently has a team of 19 engineers and scientists at ESAC including 5 on GAIA itself. Overview The Gaia mission is planning to map to microarcsecond accuracy 1 of the stellar population of our galaxy that is around one thousand million objects. Each object will be seen about 100 times over the five year mission. The data reduction of the 100 Terabytes of downlinked data is estimated to require a Petabyte storage system.
