Dear colleagues,
the following problem occurs with GAIA. The appended FITS file
440_630_4_256_3.fits.gz contains a UKIDSS image. I loaded it into GAIA
in order to tie its astrometry to 2MASS. This was done with "Fit to star
positions". The result was saved as 440_630_4_256_3_astr.fits.gz. Have a
look at those files and you'll see the difference. Obviously, GAIA does
not recognize its own astrometry properly although DS9 gets it right.
regards,
Bringfried
