Colibri has died

I just read that the James Webb telescope was taken to French Guyana aboard the MN Colibri. I think our Colibri would have approved. Link.

Such sad news, my condolences to his family and to all who knew and loved him.

Wanted to note on MPSIMS that the donations link is now available for the fellowship in Colibri’s name.

Just learned of this today. Such horrible, saddening, and disheartening news.

Rest in peace, my friend.

Good to see you again.

Hey, welcome back, @Idle_Thoughts!

Funerals and memorial services always bring old acquaintances back. :relieved:

It has been a long time since I have checked in on these boards, and this is a very unpleasant surprise. Colibri was always one of my favorite posters, as well as one of my favorite moderators. I have contributed to the scholarship in his memory. It’s not enough, but what else can one do?

Thanks for bumping this thread. It was a reminder to add another donation to the fund.
