This happened either 17 or 18 FebruRY - COMMENTS PLEASE
This evening at approx 7.15pm I witnessed a very fast moving orange light with fan tailed shaped  vapour? I thought it might be a shooting star but after an extended wish period I think not! It did not ‘expire’.  It was much lower than those satellites you sometimes see far away – and it was big.  Travelling from Epworth area to Marlborough area. I would be very interested if any of your readers saw the same thing?  I’ve tried to find an astronomical website for Harare which was very out of date but I did get two names. I thought I’d find the Prince Edward Astronomical society but no luck. nadia@donavans.co.zw

There seems to have been no  documented activity over Zimbabwe this year - if anyone has seen or heard of anything please let me know.

With the anniversary of the Ruwa Ariel School sighting this coming month we may see something.  Keep looking!

Mabelreign/Haig Park

Things have been very quiet but I have received this report and comments would be appriciated.

'I stumbled on your site and want to ask you if there was ever a report of a UFO in Mabelreign/Haig Park in the mid 1950s? I was at Haig Park Primary school (It is probably something else now) (it was the year Haig Park opened) and was in Std 1 or 2. I was born in 1947 so this would have been about 1955 or 56. I remember I was standing on the veranda looking out over a field of some kind ( the field was below the school) and I saw something land.

It was bright and shiny, silver. Some "people" got out and walked around the object. I was too far away to see them or the craft clearly, but it is something that I remember with perfect clarity over 50 years later. I have always wondered.'

5:43 AM. Several Mozambican laborers working in Zimbabwe reported seeing a large, brightly lit balloon-shaped object passing over Chimanimani, Zimbabwe. The witnesses were able to see two men inside the craft. One was dressed in blue and the other in white. The witnesses interpreted the object as "witch doctors" traveling from South Africa.
