The word "isotropic" means the same in all directions; the degree of anisotropy of the CMB is about one part in a thousand.

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation The Big Bang theory predicts that the early universe was a very hot place and that as it expands‚ the gas within it cools. Thus the universe should be filled with radiation that is literally the remnant heat left over from the Big Bang‚ called the “cosmic microwave background radiation”‚ or CMB. The CMB is an almost-uniform background of radio waves that fill the universe. The CMB is‚ in effect‚ the leftover heat of the Big Bang itself - it was released when
