SUMMARY
The cosmic microwave background (CMB) exhibits a dynamic pattern of temperature variation that changes over time. Specifically, there is a gradual increase in wavelength, and the structural patterns of the CMB, which can span 10 Megalightyears, also evolve over a time scale of approximately 10 million years. This indicates that the CMB is not static but rather a variable phenomenon influenced by cosmic events.
