(Mapping Obscuration to Reionization with ALMA)
(high resolution 2-mm survey of a portion of the COSMOS field)

MORA, for Mapping Obscuration to Reionization with ALMA, is a 2-mm ALMA-based survey of a 0.05 deg² subregion of the COSMOS survey field. The intention is identification and observation of dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) with redshifts of 4 and higher, as revealed within a millimeter atmospheric window (at wavelength ~2 mm), aiming to collect new data regarding star formation history (SFH). Various criteria are being used to determine whether an observed signal is likely to represent such a galaxy, and twelve strong DSFG candidates have been announced.

Ex-MORA is a subsequent extended effort.
