My friend Jeremy Newsome would've loved this. He was a nerd for anything space/telescope/satellite related. He was a great uncle and an amazing friend. Whoever reads this comment will never know him, but as long as i have breath in my body, i'll always tell what a great man he was

Cool. Spring equinox marks the new year in Iran. It is celebrated as Nowrouz (which literally translate to New Day) and is observed by Iranian people as well as cultures influenced by Iran (Persia). People clean their houses (or shake their houses), buy new clothes, visit relatives and friends, and elders give younger people money. There is also the 7 seen table, that includes wheat sprouts, apples, etc.

Happy Vishu!!. Vishu is a harvest festival in Inida. It is usually celebrated on April 14 or 15, as in the older times, the equinox was on that day, thousands of years ago. It was also the time when our fields was harvested and the beginning of a new year. We would see 'Kani' which refers to the first thing we saw when waking up. On Vishu eve(evening of day before vishu), we would place all the harvested crops like wheat, rice, vegetable, and where I am from, Kerala, a jackfruit and mangoes. A special type of flower called konna poov(Golden shower tree plant flower) will be placed.On Vishu day we would wake and the first thing we see is this crops brightly shining in the light of the lamp. It symbolises hardwork and prosperity. Then the elders would give money to younger ones as a sign of prosperity as it was the time when money came by selling the crops. Although it is April 15 this year, it was intended to be in equinox as the Sun moves from norther to southern hemisphere which cause end of cold and beginning of warm and heat. It is why I whished you all HAPPY VISHU!!!!!!!!!!
