From what I understand, empty space has a temperature of 2.7 degrees K? And that empty space still gives off micro-wave radiation from the big bang?
Can someone help me visualize this? For me, the idea of empty space giving off radiation and having a temperature that isn't absolute zero is almost like trying to visualize a dry towel being used as an excellent conductor for electricity...hopefully someone catches what I mean by this.
I just can't seem to grasp how an empty space can give off radiation. Surely someone understands what I mean :P any help would be appreciated :)
