The essence of high resolution interferometric imaging is Michelson interferometry and it has a long history. Yet the symposium programme describes it as the Last Frontier! Why was it not crossed decades ago? This paradox needs some explanation. I suspect that many participants here are tourists in interferometry, as I am in their fields, so it is interesting to look at the key developments since Michelson invented the field. It is, of course, a personal view.
