First prediction from Big Bang model:
Cosmic Background Radiation
Look out (and back in time) to placewhere
H became neutral
Beyond that the high density ionized H
forms an opaque �wall�
Originally 3000 K blackbody radiation
The material that emitted it was moving
away from us at extreme speed
That v produces extreme redshift (z=1000),
so photons all appear much redder, so T
appears cooler
With red shift, get 2.7 K Planck blackbody
Should be same in all directions
