Gaia: Composition, Formation and Evolution of the Galaxy
This document is the Gaia Concept and Technology Study Report (CTSR), limited to the scientific case on which the mission was accepted within ESA's scientific programme. For the record, the full Gaia Concept and Technology Study Report (ESA-SCI(2000)4), published in July 2000, as well as ESA's glossy Gaia brochure (ESA BR-163), published in August 2000, are available too. An associated summary paper has been published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, Volume 369, 339-363 (2001) and in the ESA Bulletin 103 (August 2000). Note that the technical design details in these documents have been superseded, although the essential design objectives remain unaffected.
