The diagram below is a heat map showing that temperature was not evenly distributed. This is a whole sky Planck space telescope image of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the relic radiation ...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) team has captured the clearest images of the universe in its earliest stages—when it ...

New research by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) collaboration has produced the clearest images yet of the universe’s ...

One of the Holy Grails in cosmology is a look back at the earliest epochs of cosmic history. Unfortunately, the universe's ...

Since Penzias, Wilson, and Dicke's work, all that has changed. The measurement of cosmic background radiation (as the Holmdel telescope's noise is now called), combined with Edwin Hubble's much ...

Detecting such jets from the early universe has always been challenging. The cosmic microwave background—radiation left over ...

Cosmic microwave background is a sea of radiation that provides us with evidence for the big bang. When around 1916 Einstein first used general relativity to build a cosmic model, he followed the ...

Further evidence for the Big Bang comes from the discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR). Astronomers discovered cosmic microwave background radiation in the 1960s. The ...
