I wanted to bring the topic of Hidden Galaxies ,which has been advancing rapidly, up to date. The International Astronomical Union funded a 5 day symposium on “The Realm of the Low Surface Brightness Universe” on Tenerife in July 2019 . The Proceedings were supposed to be published by the CUP years ago but have never appeared, perhaps because of Covid. So I have taken the liberty below of printing my opening address in pdf format in the hope of partially repairing that omission. But it can only be partial, one biassed participant’s opinions. It’s pretty technical and only for experts.
