We first show the stars seen by Gaia in a full-sky Hammer projection. Then we change our view to show the 260,000 probable white dwarfs identified by Gentile Fusillo et al. (2018, [ Ссылка ]) in the Gaia DR2 catalogue. Finally, we show the movement of the white dwarfs over a period of 540,000 years.

The video is based on Gaia's second star catalogue published on April 25, 2018 and was created with the program Gaia Sky.
