    The authors study the detection of singularities of the Lorentzian metric measuring the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation. The characterization of visible singularities via microlocal analysis of the geodesic ray is obtained. The inverse problem for the CMB measurements is formulated. The parametrization of the CMB measurements is given. The reduction of the linearized problem to inversion of the light ray transform is considered. The light ray transform in a translation invariant case is studied.
