research with professors Sean O’Neill and Katrina Hay at PLU’s W.M. Keck Observatory, working some nights between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m., learning how to operate the equipment, including the 16-inch telescope, and talking about space. It was a culmination of a childhood passion for astronomy and astrophysics. “My first class at PLU was a physics course with Dr. Bret Underwood,” said Kop. “I knew it was going to be difficult, and it was. But the new experience of a small class with a professor who is very
