"The Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) , also referred to as Explorer 66, was a satellite dedicated to cosmology, which operated from 1989 to 1993.

COBE's measurements provided two key pieces of evidence that supported the Big Bang theory of the universe: that the CMB has a near-perfect black-body spectrum, and that it has very faint anisotropies. Two of COBE's principal investigators, George Smoot and John Mather, received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2006 for their work on the project. According to the Nobel Prize committee, "the…
