Abstract
Anisotropy of microwave background radiation is a predicted measurable effect of the early universe properties. The signal is extremely small, so a radiation from the Earth and the Earthpsilas atmosphere may dramatically affect the investigation. Most sensitive results were obtained from the space experiments: Relict (launched in 1983), COBE (1989), and WMAP (2001). We observe the Relict microwave equipment and compare the results of data reduction with the WMAP data.
