Finding the big bang

The outer archives are busy

by P. J. E. Peebles, Lyman A. Page, R. B. Partridge

About this book

Cosmology, the study of the universe as a whole, has become a precise physical science, the foundation of which is our understanding of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) left from the Big Bang. The story of the discovery and exploration of the CMBR in the 1960's is recalled for the first time in this collection of 44 essays by eminent scientists who pioneered the work.
