Robert Herman was an influential American physicist known for his contributions to cosmology, particularly in the early 20th century. He is best recognized for his role in developing the concept of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMB), which is the faint glow left over from the Big Bang. His work helped provide evidence for the Big Bang theory, which explains the origin and evolution of the universe. Herman's studies contributed to our understanding of the universe's structure, composition, and history, offering insights into how galaxies formed and evolved over billions of years.
