🛰⭐️ The paper "Gaia Focused Product Release: Sources from SIF image analysis - Half a million new sources in omega Centauri" has been published in A&A

https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2023/12/aa47203-23/aa47203-23.html

This paper adds more than half a million new #GaiaMission stars in the core of ω Centauri

This is possible thanks to the service interface function of Gaia's Sky Mapper instrument
