RIP Sir Harry Kroto

morreale Wednesday 01 of June, 2016
Sir Harry Kroto passed away at the age of 76. He was awarded a Nobel prize in 1996 for discovering Buckyballs (C60). I saw him speak at Rutgers University by a lucky circumstance a long time ago. He was an exceptional and inspiring speaker. He will certainly be missed. The Guardian and NPR have good summaries of his achievements.
