Astronomers analyzed over 100,000 molecular clouds to uncover how stars form across galaxies. These stellar nurseries turn out to be short-lived, turbulent structures, with only a small fraction of their gas becoming stars before feedback disperses them.

The results reveal a self-regulating cycle shaped by galactic environment, offering a new, unified view of how galaxies evolve over time.
