The cosmic microwave background (CMB or CMBR) is microwave radiation that fills all space in the observable universe. It is sometimes called relic radiation...

The discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation constitutes a major development in modern physical cosmology. In 1964, US physicist Arno Allan...

This list is a compilation of experiments measuring the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation anisotropies and polarization since the first detection...
