What are the three main parts that make up GAIA? Briefly explain and describe each.

GAIA is composed of three main parts; the astrometry instrument, the photometric instrument, and the radial-velocity spectrometer. The astrometry instrument is used to determine the angular positions of stars to better measure their distances and motions. The photometric instrument measures the luminosity of stars to help determine stellar properties such as temperature, mass, age, and what elements the stars are made up of. The radial-velocity spectrometer will determine the speed of galactic objects along the line of sight.

Explanation:

The three main parts that make up GAIA are :

The functions of the main parts of GAIA are as follows

Hence we can conclude that the three main parts that make up GAIA are astrometry , photometric instrument and radial-velocity spectrometer

spare some change and give it to the poor

explanation:

plz : ((

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
