March 18 is remembered for several important global events in history. One major highlight is the first spacewalk, when Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov became the first human to walk in space in 1965. This moment was a huge step forward in space exploration and inspired future missions.
The day is also observed as Global Recycling Day, which focuses on promoting recycling and environmental protection. It reminds people around the world about the importance of reducing waste and protecting natural resources.
In India, while no fixed national festival falls every year on this date, March continues to be a festive period due to celebrations like Holi around this time.
