International Space Station flies over Zimbabwe Saturday and you can view it

It’s that time again folks.

The International Space Station will take its flight over Zimbabwe on Saturday.

The time? 6:57 pm.

And it will be visible over Zambia as well.

So for those in Zimbabwe it will fly as if coming from Zambia and going towards southern Mozambique.

Of course, this is if there are no clouds.

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.

At 28 800 km/h it only takes 90 minutes for the weightless laboratory to make a complete circuit of Earth. Astronauts working and living on the Station experience 16 sunrises and sunsets each day.
