The cosmic microwave background (CMB) was first identified in the mid-1960s as the residual glow from the Big Bang. Over the decades, observations have verified this concept, enhancing understanding of the Universe's early state. While many initially believed the exploration of the CMB concluded with Planck, recent discoveries indicate significant knowledge remains to be gained. The CMB offers insights not only into cosmic origins but also reveals data on cosmic expansion, dark matter, dark energy, and more, serving as a vital source of information about the Universe.
The cosmic microwave background, or CMB, provides evidence of the Big Bang and encodes insights about the early Universe, dark matter, dark energy, and cosmic expansion.
CMB analysis has evolved significantly over the past decade, revealing crucial information about our cosmic origins and the Universe's 13.8 billion year journey.
