«Satellites are not a thermometer in space, they're not making direct measurements of atmospheric temperature, they're measuring
the microwave emissions from oxygen molecules,» Santer said.
They detect
microwave emissions from oxygen molecules that vary in frequency with temperature.
Furthermore,
microwave emission from dust in our galaxy tends to be polarized, which could confuse BICEP - Keck observations, at least to some extent.

Part of the
emission from the centre of Messier 106 is produced by a process that is somewhat similar to that in a laser — although here the process produces bright
