ALMA, or the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, is an international partnership of astronomical organizations that operates a large interferometer in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. This array of radio telescopes is used to observe and study the millimeter and submillimeter wavelength regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, allowing astronomers to investigate a wide range of phenomena such as star formation, galaxy evolution, and the early universe. ALMA provides high-resolution images and detailed spectroscopic data that help researchers better understand the processes shaping the cosmos.
