The annual rocket competition in Thailand’s Pathum Thani province kicked off on May 1, 2022, for the first time since the pandemic started. The tradition is a way for ethnic Mon people to honour deceased Buddhist monks. The “Look Noo” rockets are stuffed with explosives and wired to cables before being launched at pagoda-shaped targets.
