Sad news indeed. Nicollier has a website.Claude Nicollier was recently interviewed on a local tv channel, a show which focuses on personalities with extraordinary careers and accomplishments. I remember him saying that the only regret he had about his astronaut career was it took him away too often from his family and he wished that he'd had more time to spend with them, something he was planning to do now that he was "retired"...
