The power spectrum of CMB anisotropies is a fruitful observable because of its rich features and calculability. Measurements so far have revealed the predicted acoustic oscillations of the primordial plasma, provided confirmation of the supernovae--detected dark energy, and determined the age of the Universe to a few percent. All previous competitors to inflation as the initial generator of fluctuations have been ruled out, though cosmologists search for new ones. Future measurements will greatly improve our knowledge of cosmological parameters and provide stringent consistency tests for the new cosmology.
