something very bizarre has been found; there is some extra, so far unexplained structure in the CMB. The microwave background was supposed to be isotropic, with no preferred direction in space but that may not be the case. Looking at the symmetry of the CMB - measures technically called its octopole and quadropole components, researchers have uncovered a curious pattern. (They had expected to see no pattern at all but what they saw was anything but random.) "The octopole and quadropole components are arranged in a straight line across the sky, along a kind of cosmic equator. That's weird. " "We are convinced that it is a real effect," "It is telling us something about the shape of space on the largest scales. We did not expect this and we cannot yet explain it." I wounder if it is showing up the boundary of our universe bubble? and that we are near the `wall`?
