Kolibri was a joint Russian-Australian educational project to allow school children to monitor low frequency waves and particle fluxes in low orbit. The IKI space science group led the project together with Energia, NPO-M and Polyot. The satellite was equipped with a 2-meter gravity gradient boom and four solar panels. The satellite was ejected into orbit from the Progress M1-7 spacecraft after it had undocked from the International Space Station. in a 385 x 388 km x 51.6 deg orbit.
