Abstract
The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars in the Galaxy, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds was an ESO Large Program (P.I. S. Smartt) aimed at understanding rotational mixing and stellar mass loss in environments of differing metallicity (Z). The overarching goal is to better understand massive star evolution.
