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 ...

There hadn't really been enough time for all that to happen. Also, the cosmic background radiation discovered in 1965, considered a virtual echo of the big bang, was completely uniform throughout ...

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 ...

A never-before-seen image of the cosmic microwave background, combining data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) and ...

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 ...
