This session on the cosmic background radiation is remarkable for the quality of the interesting new results presented and the controversy over substantive issues. This paper reviews the status of measurements of the spectrum and anisotropy of the cosmic background and summarizes what is known of the properties of the cosmic background radiation: its spectrum, anisotropy, polarization, and statistics.
