Kevin Heng

Few people can say they were a part of a space mission. Kevin Heng (MAstro’05, PhD’07) can. He works as a professor for the University of Bern in Switzerland, which leads the CHEOPS — Characterizing Exoplanets Satellite — space mission and the PlanetS framework for exoplanet and solar system research. Kevin joined the university’s Exoplanets and Exoclimes Group after finishing a term at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton.
