There isn't much out there but it still has a temperature.

My guess is about 3K.

So why all this CMBR/BB crap?


Yeah... a little less that 3K now, but in the past it was higher.

Why is it the about the same everywhere?


It isn't. If you put the thing in space about 93000000 miles from the sun,
it will be much warmer.


There is an awful lot of space between stars.
I reckon it averages 3K.

Big Bang, Big BULL!!
