Gaia space mission of the European Space Agency was launched at the end of 2013 and will continue operations until 2025. The published data releases revolutionize the view of the Milky Way galaxy and beyond thanks to its unprecedented astrometry, photometry and spectroscopy. The paper reviews the products of the last data release of the Gaia mission and some of the scientific impacts of the data. We also discuss the future perspectives of Galaxy astrometry from space.
