Updated Gaia description
Gaia TAP+
=========
+Gaia is an ambitious mission to chart a three-dimensional map of our Galaxy, the Milky Way,
+in the process revealing the composition, formation and evolution of the Galaxy.
+Gaia will provide unprecedented positional and radial velocity measurements with the accuracies needed
+to produce a stereoscopic and kinematic census of about one billion stars in our Galaxy and
+throughout the Local Group. This amounts to about 1 per cent of the Galactic stellar population.
+
+If you use public Gaia DR1 data in your paper, please take note of our guide_ on how to acknowledge and cite Gaia DR1.
