Hey star kids.
The International Space Station makes its awesome passage over Zimbabwe on Wednesday, and yes, you can see it too.
If there are no clouds, you should be able to see it around 18:53hrs.
It looks a star flying from South Africa to Eastern Malawi. So you will have to look east to check it out.
The occasion has become very popular with locals, with many of our readers standing outside to check it out. It is after all viewable with the naked eye.
