ICYMI, there will be some new #GaiaMission data products being released toward the end of this year.

1. Astrometry and photometry of sources in Omega Cen from engineering images
2. The first results of quasars' environment analysis for gravitational lenses search.
3. Extended radial velocity epoch data for Long Period Variables.
4. Diffuse Interstellar Bands from aggregated RVS spectra.
5. Updated astrometry for Solar System objects

@rdrimmel we found that the DIB processing in DR3 had so many issues as to be effectively unusable, and a number of their main conclusions to be incorrect. This is the process of science, and we bear them no ill will, of course. Do you know whether the team is going to be taking our work into account? https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2022arXiv221203879S/abstract

@jegpeek Well, since I'm on the team, I'll see what they can do, though I believe no further changes can be made to the SW that will be doing the processing at this point.

@rdrimmel great. If I am honest I do not think the DIB work was up to the incredibly high standard the Gaia team has set for itself (and met!) since DR1. We were extremely excited to work with those data but they are too highly corrupted to use for science.
