They identify key outstanding questions related to the formation and evolution of the Milky Way. Answering these questions requires precise, accurate ages for large samples of stars, such as those that will be provided by PLATO (through WP120). They demonstrate that the capabilities of PLATO are such that answering their key questions is possible.
