Today was the first day of the Gaia Hike hosted at UBC and led by Neige Frankel (CITA). The day started with business cards (short intro talks from everyone), followed by an attempt to find common themes across participants. Once the themes were identified, we split into groups to talk about what we might do this week with the ESA Gaia DR3 data. I ended up in a mapping and visualization group, which was fun, and (of course!) we closed out the day hacking on a piece of the data on stellar parameters, trying to figure out why the stellar parameters don't look exactly as we expect.
