Abstract
The steady state universe is considered in the light of stochastic electrodynamics. It is shown that the cosmic background radiation and the continuous creation of matter are rather well accounted for. Several other topics, such as the anomalous redshifts and the diffuse gamma-ray background, are considered, with interesting results.
