Minding the gaps in our maps of the stars. This Project seeks to understand the formation of our Galaxy by studying the brightest billion stars. This Project will develop novel methods to account for the unseen hundreds of billions of fainter stars, and for the complexities of space telescopes. Anticipated outcomes include fundamental tests of stellar evolution theory; the discovery of stars flung from our Galaxy by massive black holes; a timeline of our Galaxy’s evolution; and a 3D map of its stars and interstellar dust. This is expected to drive a generational advancement in astrophysics, provide social benefits by engaging the public with discovering the cosmos, and generate economic benefits from a general method for hypothesis testing with biased and incomplete datasets.

注意我们星图上的空隙。该项目旨在通过研究最明亮的十亿颗恒星来了解我们银河系的形成。该项目将开发新的方法来解释看不见的数千亿颗较暗的恒星，以及空间望远镜的复杂性。预期的成果包括恒星演化理论的基本测试;发现被大质量黑洞从银河系抛出的恒星;银河系演化的时间轴;以及银河系恒星和星际尘埃的3D地图。预计这将推动天体物理学的世代进步，通过让公众参与发现宇宙来提供社会效益，并从使用有偏见和不完整数据集进行假设检验的一般方法中产生经济效益。
