Distribution on sky in galactic coordinates of RR Lyrae stars within the limiting magnitude of Gaia (orange points). The map combines known literature sources with and without a Gaia counterpart and new RR Lyrae stars discovered by Gaia and confirmed by the SOS Cep&RRL pipeline for more than 223 000 RR Lyrae stars in total. Blue filled dots and magenta filled squares indicate 87 globular clusters and 12 dwarf spheroidal galaxies (classical and ultra-faint) in which Gaia has observed RR Lyrae stars that are confirmed by the SOS Cep&RRL pipeline.
