Nobel prize

The Nobel prize winners have just been announced. When I read about the winners in Physics I realized that this isn't really my topic. This is the description: "for their discovery of the blackbody form and anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation".

What is a blackbody? Somebody clad in black? Anisotropy? Not even Cambridge dictionary contains this word. Hmmm...better stick to what I know about...like men! But wait, sometimes I don't understand them either. Now I managed to even confuse myself :)
