The Cosmic Microwave Background The background is the left over radiation from the Big Bang. It has now cooled to a temperature of 2.7 K

The Cosmic Microwave Background Imprint in the background due to the motion of the Earth, about 1 part in 1,000 of the total intensity

Summary  After the Big Bang the Universe was hot and smooth.  As it expanded it cooled.  The CMB is a picture of the Universe when it was only 300,000 years old.  Under the influence of gravity structure has formed.
