First, let’s discuss how cosmic microwave background radiation was discovered. Back in the 1960s, engineers Arno Penzias and ...

Recently, I delved into materials related to the universe, and the more I explored, the more fascinated I became, especially ...

Leftover light from the young universe has a major flaw, and we don't know how to fix it. It's the cold spot. It's just way too big and way too cold. Astronomers aren't sure what it is, but they ...

Recent studies suggest that our galaxy, the Milky Way, may be situated in a cosmic void, a revelation that could potentially resolve some complex cosmological mysteries. The exploration of these ...

The newly detected gravitational wave background could be the result of supermassive black hole binaries that orbit each other for a few million years before merging. By now you’ll have seen the news ...

Full-Sky Map Of Cosmic Background Radiation, A Full-Sky Map Produced By The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (Wmap) Showing Cosmic Background Radiation, A Very Uniform Glow Of Microwaves Emitted ...

Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of spacetime predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, first detected in 2015. But an expected corresponding low-frequency ...

With CMB-S4, scientists hope to connect a sandy desert with a polar desert—and revolutionize our understanding of the early universe. In the 1960s, an anomalous, faint electromagnetic glow was ...

Astrophysicists from the Universities of Oxford and Rome have for the first time found evidence of ripples in the Universe’s primordial sea of neutrinos, confirming the predictions of both Big Bang ...

At least for me, the most interesting thing in the popular superhero TV show WandaVision is the brief mention of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It happens in Episode Four, "We Interrupt This ...
