An article accepted for publication in the “Astrophysical Journal Supplement” series presents the PHANGS-ALMA survey with the mapping of about 100,000 stellar nurseries in 90 galaxies in the nearby universe. A team of researchers used the ALMA radio telescope to map molecular clouds of gas and dust in which conditions are suitable for the formation of new stars. The results of this survey were presented at the 238th meeting of the American Astronomical Society held in recent days.
