Thers was a suggestion that the post I put in the general chat section be moved here so I thought I would move it.
I need some clarification please as I think I am misunderstanding this completely when I thought I had it under some sort of control.I think I was of the understanding that the radiation being received has come/travelled across from 13.7 billion light years and as a result of the universe expanding has undergone a red shift stretch factor that has put this radiaiton into the microwave zone. But I have read that this radiation is the same everywhere and distributed evenly through the universe and I don't get it know. Can anyone simply explain this concept to a simple mind. I find this facinating and would like to clear my confusion. I listened to a 365 days podcast that talked about the background radiation being like a blueprint of the structure of the universe that exists today that is found in the radiation itself.
