The Gaia satellite is transforming our understanding of the distribution of dark matter in the Milky Way. I’ll discuss the impact on experiments searching for the direct detection of dark matter of sub-structures that have recently been detected in the Milky Way’s dark matter halo with Gaia data: the ‘Gaia Sausage’ and ‘Dark Shards’. Based on arXiv:1807.09004, arXiv:1810.11468 and arXiv:1909.04684 in collaboration with Ciaran O’Hare, Wyn Evans, GyuChul Myeong and Vasily Berlokurov.
