Abstract: Abstract
Last year were published the results from three projects (BOOMERANG,
DASI and MAXIMA) dealing with the observation of the temperature
anisotropies
of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It was a real breakthrough
for
cosmology since these data established a new level in understanding the
Universe. Here we present a review of the main results
obtained by the projects mentioned above, emphasizing their
significance to
the nowadays status of cosmology. In this respect, we report on the
increasing
evidences for an inflationary period in the very early stages after the
Big
Bang, we discuss at large the values of the cosmological parameters and
we
acknowledge the picture of the Universe as it appears from the CMB
data.
