Saturn-Thai rocket: Monk prepares for launch San Kamphaeng District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Bangfai rocket festival, 06 July 2014. Some of the participants jokingly call the rockets Saturn-Thai. The tradition may have started in China, but it is big in Laos and migrated to the Laos-Isan part of Thailand. As Laos-Isan people moved to other parts of Thailand, they sometimes brought the rocket tradition with them. The biggest rockets can weigh 2,000 pounds. This rocket is small yet powerful.
