We are deeply saddened to share the news of the passing of George Michael Sheldrick, a prominent figure in crystallography whose contributions have shaped the field for decades.
A full obituary will be published in Acta Crystallographica A in due course.

Curiosity and diffractometer:
What is this yellow stuff that fell everywhere recently after wave of hot weather from Sahara?
Results: Breaking news! Sahara contains sand!
More precisely, mostly quartz, a bit of calcite, dolomite and mica.
