Can I speculate for a moment..I am good at it I find
Could the back ground radiation be light from galaxies beyond our belief of the current boundaries we have set???
If the Universe was infinite would this not be what we would see... I did read someone offerred starlight as the explaination and a well known person..Eddington maybe???

Unfortunately no. The cosmic background radiation occurred at a time when the formation of atoms began to occur and photons were being emitted through energy transitions of electrons in atoms. The microwave background radiation is due to the extreme red shift of these photons which highlights their age (about 400,000 years after the BB). The first galaxies came into existence about 500 million years later.

Yep....the Era of Recombination (although that's not quite correct either, as they (the atoms) were never ionised to begin with.... they formed for the first time from the primordial "soup" of particles).
?
...any views
