From Lately, 10:42 pm on 14 December 2020

For Lately's weekly science segment, Karyn speaks with Dr Andrew Zic, postdoctoral researcher at Macquarie University and Australia's national science agency CSIRO, about the weather in space.

Dr Zic will talk about Proxima Centauri - Prioxima Cen for short - which is our Sun's nearest neighbour with two 'Earth like' rocky planets.
