Description
We review the physics of the cosmic microwave background
anisotropies and how the early universe and cosmological
structure formation imprint their records into it.
We describe the status of the CMB experiments, pointing out the
CMB observables which are still beyond reach of the operating detectors.
Finally, we focus on the the expectations from Planck and future probes.
