Astronomy with Alan Gilmore

From Nights, 9:07 pm on 24 November 2022

Former Superintendent of the Mt John Observatory above Lake Tekapo in the Mackenzie Country, Alan Gilmore joins us for his regular astronomy chat.

This week, Alan looks to all the naked-eye planets we can see in the evening sky during early December, and he chats about why it's time-out for leap seconds.
