CMB is an acronym for the Cosmic Microwave Background, which is the faint afterglow of the Big Bang that permeates every corner of the observable universe. Synonyms for CMB include the cosmic microwave radiation, the cosmic microwave background radiation, or simply the microwave background. This radiation is the oldest light in the universe and provides a snapshot of the universe when it was only 380,000 years old.

With the help of satellites like WMAP and Planck, scientists continue to study CMB to unravel more mysteries of the universe.
