Scientific paper

Surveys made at wavelengths shorter than 100 microns are criticized in that they are biased against finding the coldest, most deeply obscured, and possibly youngest protostars. Large scale mapping of star forming regions in the submillimeter continuum and in lines such as CS H2CO and NH3, that are excited at high density, is identified as crucial in order to find clouds in the earliest stages of collapse into stars. The use of photometry from 1 to 1000 microns in characterizing the disks around embedded stars and T Tauri stars is outlined.
