(website with Gaia data on Kepler target stars)

The website, gaia-kepler.fun holds a database with stars that are in both the Kepler Telescope and Gaia data. Thus, for the Kepler target-star, the Gaia information such as parallax/distance and proper motion is easily looked up. Matches are those within a certain small angular distance of each other, which leads to some ambiguities (multiple stars that match a single star) and the database offers them all.
