Variable winds on Venus mapped in three dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present zonal and meridional wind measurements at three altitude levels within the cloud layers of Venus from cloud tracking using images taken with the VIRTIS instrument on board Venus Express.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gaia Data Release 1. Open cluster astrometry: performance, limitations, and future prospects

F. van Leeuwen, +592 more
TL;DR: The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS) component by means of the astrometric data for open clusters as discussed by the authors, which is a subset of about 2 million stars for which, besides the position and photometry, the proper motion and parallax are calculated using Hipparcos and Tycho 2 positions in 1991.

TL;DR: The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS) component by means of the astrometric data for open clusters as mentioned in this paper, which is a subset of about 2 million stars for which, besides the position and photometry, the proper motion and parallax are calculated using Hipparcos and Tycho 2 positions in 1991.
Journal ArticleDOI

AKATSUKI returns to Venus

TL;DR: The Japanese Venus Climate Orbiter (AKATSUKI) as discussed by the authors was designed to investigate the climate system of Venus and reached the planet on December 7, 2015, where a westward equatorial orbit with apoapsis of ~440,000 km and orbital period of 14 days was initiated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gaia Data Release 1. Testing the parallaxes with local Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars

G. Clementini, +589 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first parallax measurements of the primary standard candles of the cosmological distance ladder, that involve astrometry collected by Gaia during the initial 14 months of science operation, are published in Gaia Data Release 1 (DR1) as part of the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS).
