The video addresses a question about the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) and whether it will ever cease to reach us. It explains that as we observe light from distant parts of the universe, we are looking back in time. The CMBR originates from a time when the universe was a uniform hydrogen plasma. As the universe expands, we will continue to observe CMBR from even further distances, ensuring it remains observable. The video concludes that due to the vastness of the universe, we will not run out of CMBR.
