The Tor browser is a browser based off of Firefox. Its main objective is to give users complete anonymity while browsing the web by connecting through a network known as The Tor network. Tor stands for "The Onion Router" It's called that because of it's encryption technique. Every time a user sends something like a message through the Tor network, each place it goes to before it gets to its final destination, a layer of the encryption is taken off. Right before the user receives the message, all layers are taken off. It's just like an onion, hence the name.
The Tor browser has been modified from the original Firefox, so that you can remain anonymous. Every time you use the browser, it is run with a different IP. Thus, making it much difficult, but not impossible (obviously) for people to track you. The Tor network was a project created by the US Navy, but managed to go public.
