What is common between astronaut Kate Rubins and Indian women? The moon, ofcourse! The reason is different, but obvious. Kate Rubins posted a beautiful picture of moon on the same day when women were anxiously waiting for it.
This is how moon looked on Wednesday.
The photo is captioned, "Aboard the International Space Station (@ISS), astronaut Kate Rubins snapped this pic of a moonset behind the station."
When it comes to India, married women were anxiously waiting for the moon on Karwa Chauth.
Karva Chauth is a one-day festival celebrated by Hindu women in many countries in which married women fast from sunrise to moonrise for the safety and longevity of their husbands.
The fast is traditionally celebrated in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, parts of Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, and Punjab.
The festival falls on the fourth day after the full moon, in the Hindu lunisolar calendar month of Kartik. Sometimes, unmarried women join the fast for their fiancés or desired husbands.
