New research by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) collaboration in Chile, has produced the clearest images of the universe’s infancy. Measuring light that traveled for more than 13 billion years to reach a telescope high in the Chilean Andes, the new images reveal the cosmic microwave background radiation that was visible only 380,000 years after the big bang. They show both the intensity and polarisation of the earliest light, revealing the formation of consolidating clouds of hydrogen and helium that later developed into the first galaxies and stars. It has yielded precise confirmation of the age of the cosmos and its rate of expansion. But for some scientists, the findings offer a frustrating lack of clues to major cosmological mysteries.
