What in the heck is going on here -- this precise question has been asked about 50 times today!
The Cosmic Background Radiation is believed to be the remnants of the Big Bang.

Hey, heres an idea: why not just arbitrairly choose ANY momentous event in galactic history-or just blurt out the name of your FAVORITE momentous event in galactic history. Perhaps pick from the short-list of well-known, time-honored, almost universally proclaimed, axiomatically predominate, momentous event in galactic history.
Select a momentous event in galactic history that'll be famaliar to even neophyte astrophysicists-a proven attention getting momentous event in galactic history for your guess.
I'm thinking of that all time favorite momentous event in galactic history-the one that stays firmly lodged in the minds of Astronomy 1A students as the ultimate momentous event in galactic history-the Big Bang.
What else could have produced such distant widespread dispersion of such high-energy particles?
What else could you have possibly guessed? Do you know of any other stellar 'momentous events' in galactic history? Any that the casual observer might key in on as 'catchy' or memorably momentous? Nope?
That's because for astromomy students everywhere, 'momentous event' means Big Bang. Not the Levy-Shoemaker 9 collision, or when Earth got the Moon. Not some preeminent, far-flung supernovae, or the collapse of a Red Giant, but the elemental Big Bang. The part about the origin of cosmic background radiation is pretty much superflous, unless I'm just unusually perceptive.
Not that tough of a (homework?)question, though I've seen it here on Y/A quite a bit recently.

Big Bang
--------------
According to Krauss, since Edwin Hubble advanced his expanding universe observations in 1929, the "pillars of the modern Big Bang" have been built on measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation from the afterglow of the early universe formation, movement of galaxies away from the Local Group and evidence of the abundance of elements produced in the primordial universe, as well as theoretical inferences based on Einstein's General Relativity Theory.

So, Ashley, why did you feel the need to ask your same tired question under a different yahoo name? Did you think we wouldn't know it was you?
