Best 1 COBE
COBE

The COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) mission, operated by NASA from 1989 to 1993, provided crucial data about the early universe. It precisely measured the cosmic microwave background radiation—the afterglow of the Big Bang—and identified subtle temperature variations within it. These anisotropies...

2 Planck Observatory

The Planck Observatory was a European Space Agency satellite launched in 2009. It meticulously measured microwave radiation from across the cosmos, specifically studying the cosmic microwave background. This data provided the most precise measurements yet of the early universe’s age approximately 13...

3 South Pole Telescope

The South Pole Telescope is a 10-meter diameter microwave and millimeter-wave observatory located at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica. It began observations in 2007 and is designed to conduct surveys of the cosmic microwave background. Astronomers utilize its data to detect massiv...

4 Cosmic Background Explorer

The Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) was a NASA space mission launched in 1989 to study the cosmic microwave background radiation. This ancient light represents the afterglow of the Big Bang and provides crucial data for cosmology. COBE’s measurements revealed subtle temperature variations within t...

5 Planck
Planck

The Planck mission was a European Space Agency-operated observatory designed to study the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Launched in 2009 and decommissioned in 2013, it provided highly detailed measurements of this afterglow from the Big Bang. This data is invaluable for cosmologists studying th...

6 WMAP
WMAP

The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) was a NASA space mission that studied the cosmic microwave background radiation. This ancient light, leftover from the Big Bang, contains crucial information about the early universe. WMAP’s precise measurements of these subtle temperature variations a...

7 Atacama Cosmology Telescope

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) was a 6-meter survey telescope located at an elevation of 5,190 meters on Cerro Toco in Chile's Atacama Desert. Operated by Princeton University and collaborators from 2007 to 2022, it was designed to map the cosmic microwave background radiation at arcminute an...

8 Simons Observatory

The Simons Observatory is a cosmological survey facility located at an elevation of 5,200 meters on Cerro Toco in Chile's Atacama Desert. Funded primarily by the Simons Foundation, the observatory is designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. The site is...

9 BICEP/Keck Array

The BICEP and Keck Array are a suite of small-aperture microwave telescopes located at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. They are designed to observe the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, specifically targeting B-mode polarization patterns. Astronomers use these instruments to search...
