The amount of H2 present in spiral galaxies remains unce particularly in the dim outer regions and in low-metallicity environments. We present high-resolution CO(1-0) observations with the Plateau de Bure interferometer of the most distant molecular cloud in the local group galaxy M33. The cloud is a single entity rather than a set of smaller clouds within the broad beam of the original single-dish observations. The interferometer and single-dish fluxes are very similar and the line widths are indistinguishable, despite the difference in beamsize. (2 data files).Read less <
