These will enable us to look back in time 13.6 billion years to the immediate aftermath of the Big bang. They will be precise enough to capture single photons.

Using the South pole Telescope scientists observed twisting patterns in the polarization of the cosmic microwave backgroundâ##light that last interacted with matter very early in the history of the universe less than 400000 years after the big bang. These patterns
The cosmic microwave background is a sea of photons (light particles) left over from the big bang that pervades all of space at a temperature of minus 270 degrees Celsiusâ##a mere 3 degrees above absolute zero.
Similar more elusive B modes would provide dramatic evidence of inflation the theorized turbulent period in the moments after the big bang
when matter and antimatter were created in equal amounts in the Big bang? Somehow this balance changed over time to a dominance of matter.
Had one of these started running at the Big bang and continued up to the present, it would have lost
#Nearby star is almost as old as the Universe Astronomers have discovered a Methuselah of stars#a denizen of the Solar system's neighbourhood that is at least 13.2 billion years old and formed shortly after the Big bang."
The very first stars are thought usually to have coalesced a few hundred million years after the Big bang,
the faint but ubiquitous afterglow of the Big bang. Crowning nearly 50 years of CMB study,
breaks the most new ground is in its support for the reigning theory that describes the instant after the Big bang. The theory, known as inflation,
#Planck telescope peers into primordial Universe The Planck space telescope has delivered the most detailed picture yet of the cosmic microwave background, the residual glow of the Big bang. Unveiling the results from the##700-million (US$904-million) European space agency (ESA) probe,
The results strongly support the idea that in the 10##32 seconds or so after the Big bang,
The cosmic microwave background radiation studied by Planck dates from about 380,000 years after the Big bang, by
when the Big bang happened, estimate the amount of unseen dark matter in the cosmos and measure the dark energy that is accelerating the expansion of the Universe.
#Baby model cosmos grows up to look like the real thing A supercomputer simulation has tracked the evolution of the universe from a mere 12 million years after the big bang until the present day.
#Star dust casts doubt on recent big bang wave result An imprint left on ancient cosmic light that was attributed to ripples in spacetime
All the energy in the universe was created in the Big bang that created the cosmos with some of it locked up as mass.
'While most of the energy sloshing around was created in the aftermath of the Big bang, additional energy is constantly being released by stars as they fuse elements like hydrogen and helium together.'
After the Big bang, for a length of time extending for perhaps a few milliseconds, matter was so unimaginably super-heated that it was in its most disordered possible state.
But the Big bang is thought to have put all the matter in the universe into this state, all that once.
"After the Big bang, for every particle of matter an antiparticle was created. In particle physics, a very important question is
When the Big bang created the energy of the universe about 13.8 billion years ago, some portion of that energy found itself locked up as mass.
From the Big bang to Now in 10 Easy Steps"While most of the energy sloshing around in the universe arose in the aftermath of the Big bang,
On a small scale, the physics of this transition resemble an important step in the formation of the Universe after the Big bang
what happened after the Big bang, recently found signs of the pentaquark in a powerful proton collision.
These results offer further clues about the aftermath of the Big bang. Pentaquarks could form when stars collapse into neutron stars or potentially black holesnfluencing
