Abstract
One of our greatest challenges in cosmology is understanding the origin of the structure of the universe, and in particular the formation of the galaxies. I will describe how the fossil radiation from the beginning of the universe, the cosmic microwave background, has provided a window for probing the initial conditions from which structure evolved and seeded the formation of the galaxies. I will review the outstanding cosmological issues that remain to be resolved, and suggest an optimal choice of future strategy in order to make further progress on understanding our cosmic origins.
