Well its nice to see feats like these being achieved by our indigenously built technology.
I was wondering , is this craft supposed to land on mars ? If yes , then that's the most critical phase , right ?
Landing on mars is extremely difficult. Isn't?

India is the first country in Asia and fourth in the world to perform a successful Mars mission, and the only one to do so on the first attempt.


Great JOB ISRO !
Also, INB4 BUTTHURT UK citizens commenting, "This is where our tax payer's money goes, to aid in a foreign space program" ?

^ it wont hurt as much as it would to jump into earth from orbit.

correction, 2nd existing country in world.

considering soviet russia doesn't exist anymore, and eu is not a country. :D

Great. A vicarious way to feel good.
Absolutely.

Meanwhile as per latest news all instruments onboard MOM are functioning exactly as per Text Book Guidance and Schedule,as confirmed by Scientists and Engineers of ISRO. Data and information are flowing in at Bangalore,Ahmedabad,etc. the various locations of ISRO in our Country...

bumping this thread, as Interstellar movie has mention of Indian space program and solar cell from India, i think our success in space programs are being noticed very well by western intellectuals, Nolan is one of the renowed and highly intelligent director of our time, and if his movie mentions about any space agency other than NASA its a great thing.

how many here actually planning to go for ISRO jobs, waiting for a day when Indians will set foot on another planet on their own technology

^ it's not better, get this clear o, both have different missions. ours was on an engineering mission to test our capabilities to actually reach their - with some top up basic science equips. nasa has already achieved this goal, theres all are on serious science missions. u will understand if u just look at the payload specs.

Year 2018 already marked for MOM-II mission.
Probability of dropping an instrumental module (or a lander module!!!) onto the Martian surface.
