Four Cambridge scientists have been recognised by the Royal Society for their achievements in research.

New maps from the Planck satellite uncover the ‘polarised’ light from the early Universe across the entire sky, revealing that the first stars formed much later than previously thought.

Satellite’s first all-sky image is the most detailed picture to date of the early Universe, giving us a better understanding of its birth.

Scientists at Cambridge’s Kavli Institute are studying how the Universe developed after the Big Bang by analysing light emitted up to 13.7 billion years ago.
