TL;DR: Gaia as discussed by the authors is a cornerstone mission in the science programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft construction was approved in 2006, following a study in which the original interferometric concept was changed to a direct-imaging approach.

TL;DR: In this article, the power of the Gaia DR2 in studying many fine structures of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD) was highlighted, depending in particular on stellar population selections.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the processing of the Gaia DR2 data, and describe the criteria used to select the sample published in Gaia DR 2, and explore the data set to assess its quality.

TL;DR: In this paper, the second data release of the Gaia mission and its power for constraining many different aspects of the dynamics of the satellites of the Milky Way is demonstrated. But the accuracy of the errors, statistical and systematic, are relatively well understood.

TL;DR: The third data release of the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, GDR3 as discussed by the authors , contains the same source list, celestial positions, proper motions, parallaxes, and broad band photometry in the G, G$BP}$, and G$RP}$ pass-bands already present in the Early Third Data Release.
