Loureiro Tiago - Gaia
Gaia contributors
Gaia was proposed in 1993 and since then, many people have been involved in the Gaia mission, whether at ESA, at industry side or at one of the institutes involved in the Gaia data processing. The Gaia Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC) is a collaboration which consists of around 450 scientists and engineers.
The list of Gaia contributors presented here should not be considered a complete representation of the entire consortium and should not be considered as a list of currenly active people on the Gaia mission. A more complete list of Gaia contributors that were involved in the creation of the Gaia catalogues can be obtained from the author lists of the Gaia Collaboration overview papers (for Gaia Data Release 1 see here, for Gaia Data Release 2 see here, for Gaia Early Data Release 3 see here, for the full Gaia Data Release 3 see here, for Gaia Focused Product Release see here). A history of contributions to the Gaia mission can be found from the acknowledgements given with each data release.

Tiago Loureiro is the Data Handling and TT&C operations engineer in the Gaia Flight Control Team at ESOC. He comes from Portugal and he worked for a software company prior to moving to ESOC, where he got involved in the MetOp-A launch. He has also been working in Science and Astronomy missions operations, like LISA Pathfinder and Herschel/Planck. He is currently responsible for the preparation of the operations of the data handling and communications subsystems on board Gaia. At present, this mainly means developing the operational procedures to fly Gaia, supporting the ground segment validation, and keeping an eye on the Gaia spacecraft development. He is interested in safe and efficient flight operations. [Published: 21/12/2010] |
