    Gaia Maps the Galaxy
    Nov 17 2025

    Moiya tells ConStar about the telescope that made the most precise map of the Milky Way galaxy ever... and how it made her cry. ConStar gets a little overwhelmed by the size of the universe and Moiya nerds out over a "fun math derivation" she did in grad school.
