		In 1964, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson conducted a series of diagnostic observations using a new microwave receiver owned by Bell Laboratories (which was designed for normal telephone communications) and accidentally discovered the cosmic background radiation originally predicted by Gamow.
		This observation was later confirmed by the Peebles group at Princeton University, who were themselves trying to construct a microwave antenna with a ruby maser to detect the CMBR when Penzias and Wilson made their serendipitous discovery.
		Penzias and Wilson were awarded the Nobel Prize for their discovery.

		Arno Allan Penzias was born in Munich, Germany, in 1933.
		Penzias had received a Ph.D. for his research in using masers (an acronym for "microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation") to measure radio signals coming from intergalactic hydrogen.
		Penzias and Wilson were bedeviled by this problem for nearly a year, and all they could conclude was that the infernal noise appeared uniform in all directions.

		Penzias and his Bell Labs colleague, Robert Wilson, received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1978 for their discovery of faint background radiation emanating from the "Big Bang" that is believed to have touched off the creation of the universe some 18 billion years ago.
		Penzias began his career at Bell Labs in Holmdel, N.J., in 1961, using the company's unique radio astronomy, radio transmission and satellite communications facilities to complete observations for his Ph.D. in physics, which he received from Columbia University in 1962.
		Penzias has served as vice chairman of the Committee of Concerned Scientists, an organization devoted to working for the political freedom of scientists in countries where that freedom is endangered.

		In 1963, Penzias and Wilson were assigned by Bell to the tracing of radio noise that was interfering with the development of a communications programme involving satellites.
		They took this enigmatic result to physicist Robert Dicke at Princeton, who had predicted that this sort of radiation should be present in the universe as a residual relic of the intense heat associated with the birth of the universe following the Big Bang.
		His department was in the process of constructing a radio telescope designed to detect precisely this radiation when Penzias and Wilson presented their data.

	Cosmic microwave background radiation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The CMB was predicted by George Gamow, Ralph Alpher, and Robert Hermann in the 1940s and was accidentally discovered in 1964 by Arno Penzias and Robert Woodrow Wilson, who received a Nobel Prize in Physics in 1978 for this discovery.
		The interpretation of the CMB was a very controversial issue in the 1960s with some proponents of the steady state theory arguing that the CMB was the result of scattered starlight from distant galaxies.

		in full Arno Allan Penzias German-American astrophysicist who shared one-half of the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics with Robert Woodrow Wilson for their discovery of a faint electromagnetic radiation throughout the universe.
		Unexpectedly, the two scientists detected a uniform microwave radiation that suggested a residual thermal energy throughout the universe of about 3 K. Most scientists now agree that this is the residual background radiation stemming from the primordial explosion billions of years ago from which the universe was created (see big-bang model).
		In 1976 Penzias became director of the Bell Radio Research Laboratory and in 1981 vice president of research at Bell Laboratories.
