The first pictures from the Planck Observatory are back and we will soon be able to see what happened 400,000 years ago.
The Planck observatory, launched in April, is surveying radiation that first swept out across space just 380,000 years after the Big Bang.
The light holds details about the age, contents and evolution of the cosmos.
The new images show off Planck's capabilities now that it has been set up, although major science results are not expected for a couple of years.
