Nobel Prize for COBE
http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/cosmolog.htm#News
03 2006 - John Mather and George Smoot have won the 2006 Nobel
Prize in Physics for their work on COBE. Mather was the PI on FIRAS,
the instrument to measure the spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave
Background (CMB). Smoot was the PI on the DMR, the instrument to
measure the anisotropy of the CMB. Of course many others including
myself worked on COBE. See my E-mail to the COBE team announcing the
discovery of the DMR signal, which is part of my view of the history of
the CMB up until WMAP which is still observing.

Good news !
One more reason to "believe" in the BB theory (hi! Creationists...).

Of course you do realize the creationists' prize is
