It helped prove the big bang theory.
Yes
For most cosmologists, the refutation of the steady-state theory came with the discovery of the cosmic microwave background radiation in 1965, which was predicted by the Big Bang theory
Hubble's discovery in the 1920s of a relationship between a galaxy's distance from Earth and its speed; and the discovery in the 1960s of cosmic microwave background radiation.
I didn't check the year... But the cosmic background radiation is said to support the big bang theory, because it agrees with the radiation that is expected from an expanding Universe.
Primordial background radiation is in actuality Cosmic Microwave Background. To discover just what Cosmic Microwave Background theories are, visit the URL posted below:http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/CMB.html
It is important evidence of the Big Bang.
Yes
It verifies the Big Bang Theory. The discovery of the cosmic background didn't verify anything, least of all the Big Bang Theory, which was proposed decades later. The discovery of the cosmic microwave background was important because it was not predicted, it was not expected, it verified nothing, it could not be explained, and it therefore touched off new directions of thought and research in Physics, Cosmology, and Astronomy. Those in turn led to new discoveries, new answers, new theories, and new questions. One set of these, arising from the discovery of the CMB and other things, is the Big Bang Theory.
The 'big bang' theory.

The radiation left over from the big bang is found in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. As the universe expanded and cooled, the intense hard gamma radiation that existed became radio waves in the low gigahertz region, characteristic of a temperature around 30 Kelvin.
The cosmic background radiation is an observation of the effects of the Big bang [See related question] it does not effect the Universe changing in anyway.
