diffuse background of the universe WMAP

Image: This complete CMB (Cosmic Microwave Background) map shows the temperature fluctuations of the early Universe as it became transparent ~380,000 years after the Big Bang. The maximum temperature difference between the cold blue zones and the hot red zones is of the order of 0.0001 °C. Credit: Photomontage of shots taken by Planck (ESA satellite) over 9 years.
