A man lights a rocket as he takes part in the annual "Mon Traditional Rocket" rocket-launching competition, a tradition of the ethnic Mon community in which rockets packed with explosives are tethered to cables and fired toward a pagoda in Pathum Thani province on the outskirts of Bangkok, Thailand, on May 24, 2026. The Mon traditional rocket festival originated among Thailand's Mon ethnic group as a way to honor deceased monks, using a rocket as a spectacular way to ignite a cremation fire from afar.
