Julian Kop spent the summer of 2023 at Pacific Lutheran University looking up at the night sky and the stars. Kop earned an opportunity to do summer research with professors Sean O’Neill and Katrina Hay at PLU’s W.M. Keck Observatory , working some nights between…
., 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 good at one-on-one talks and working with individual students, was just great,” he said. Kop’s interest for science grew when he took

“Capturing astronomy images is rewarding but can be challenging,” said professor of physics Katrina Hay. “It requires long exposures or stacked images, focusing in cold dark conditions, climbing a ladder to access the telescope, tracking objects as they move across the sky, and merging several…
share their summer research from the W. M. Keck Observatory Julian Kop ’24 classifies variable star systems, data processing and modeling. “Astronomy and Astrophysics have been my childhood and career interest since I was an elementary student, and engaging in undergraduate astronomy research kept me motivated and inspired throughout this entire summer,” reflected senior physics major Julian Kop. Two star systems, RR Lyrae and 68 Herculis, exhibit remarkable fluctuations in brightness, rendering
