This table, corresponding to gaia_source of the full DR1, contains the 1.15 billion objects reliably detected in the first 14 months of Gaia observations. It essentially consists of high-precision positions and magnitudes. The TGAS subset (about 2 million objects observed by both Gaia and Hipparcos) has proper motions and parallaxes. Users are advised to beware strong correlations between the astrometric parameters present for some of the less densely observed objects and the inhomogeneous coverage in this first data release (solution id: 1635378410781933568).
