They had ruled out other possibilities, such as the "white dielectric material" dropped by pigeons. Much later, satellites such as COBE, WMAP, and Planck, mapped out that cosmic background radiation, called the CMBR (or CMB) in greater and greater detail.
A triumph!

I have been on a kick of drawing some ocs for a pulp sci-fi story in my head.
We got Werner Planck and Captain Starbright!

The Mutualisms Research Group at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology has a new logo! I had a lot of fun working on this one and finding ways to highlight 's lovely tortoise beetle system.

This is a high-resolution map of the magnetic field, made by the Sun-orbiting Planck satellite.

Color coded, the 30-degree wide map confirms, among other things, that the Galaxy's interstellar magnetism is strongest in the central disk.

Article by on how WMAP and then Planck gave us better views of the cosmic background radiation, allowing us to determine the shape and size of the universe, and what exactly it contains.
