Scientific paper

Low surface brightness clouds observed at optical, infrared, and radio wavelengths are discussed. Evidence is presented that some clouds at high galactic latitudes are associated with the Local Group, M81, and possibly even with higher redshift extragalactic objects. Low temperature clouds at high latitude must affect at some level the short wavelength side of the cosmic background radiation. If some of these clouds are extragalactic there should be a further effect on the interpretation of cosmic background radiation measures.
