3. INTRODUCTION
 The Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), also
called Mangalyaan "Mars-craft" is a Mars orbiter
launched into Earth orbit on 5 November 2013 by
the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
 It was successfully inserted into orbit of Mars on 24
September 2014, making India the first country in
the world to successfully send a spacecraft to Mars
on its very first attempt.

4.  The Mars Orbiter Mission
probe lifted-off from the First
Launch Pad at Satish
Dhawan Space Centre
(SHAR), Sriharikota, Andhra
Pradesh, using a Polar
Satellite Launch Vehicl
(PSLV) rocket C25 at 14:38
IST on 5 November 2013.
 The MOM probe spent about
a month in Earth orbit, where
it made a series of seven
altitude-raising orbital
manoeuvres before trans-
Mars injection on 30
November 2013.

5. FEATURES
 It is India's first interplanetary mission.
 ISRO has become the fourth space agency to
reach Mars, after the Soviet space program, NASA,
and the European Space Agency.
 cost $73 Million (Rs.450 crores).
 Weight 1.35 tonnes.
 Self Diagnostic System that keeps Space Craft
Healthy .

6. OBJECTIVES
 The primary objective is to develop the
technologies required for design, planning,
management and operations of an interplanetary
mission, comprising the following major tasks:
 deep-space communication, navigation, mission
planning and management;
 incorporate autonomous features to handle
contingency situations.
 The secondary objective is to explore Mars' surface
features, morphology, mineralogy and Martian
atmosphere using indigenous scientific instruments.

7. ABOUT THE LAUNCH VEHICLE
 The Polar Satellite
Launch Vehicle, usually
known by its
abbreviation PSLV is
the first operational
launch vehicle of ISRO.
 The reliability rate of
PSLV has been superb.

8. SPACE CRAFT
Mass
The lift-off mass was 1,350 kg, including 852 kg of propellant.
Dimensions
Cuboid in shape of approximately 1.5
Power
Electric power is generated by three solar array panels of 1.8 m × 1.4 m
each, for a maximum of 840 W generation in Martian orbit. Electricity is
stored in a 36 Ah Li-ion battery.
Propulsion
Liquid fuel engine of 440 N thrust is used for orbit raising and insertion in
Martian orbit. The orbiter also has eight 22 N thrusters for attitude
control or orientation.
Communications
The antenna array consists of a low-gain antenna, a medium-gain
antenna and a high-gain antenna. The High-gain antenna system is
used to transmit and receive the telemetry, tracking, commanding and
data to and from the Indian Deep Space Network.

11. PAYLOAD
The 15 kg scientific payload consists of five
instruments:
 Lyman-Alpha Photometer (LAP)
Study of Escape processes of Martian upper
atmosphere through Deuterium/Hydrogen
 Methane Sensor For Mars (MSM)
Detection of Methane presence

12.  Mars Exospheric Neutral Composition Analyzer
(MENCA)
Study of the neutral composition of Martian
upper atmosphere
 Thermal Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (TIS)
Map surface composition and mineralogy
 Mars Colour Camera (MCC)
Optical imaging

13. TELEMETRY AND COMMAND
 The Indian Space Research Organisation Telemetry,
Tracking and Command Network performed
navigation and tracking operations for the launch with
ground stations at Sriharikota, Port
Blair, Brunei and Biak in Indonesia, and after the
spacecraft's apogee became more than 100,000 km,
two large 18-metre and 32-metre diameter antennas of
the Indian Deep Space Network was utilised.
 NASA's Deep Space Network is providing position
data during the non-visible period of ISRO's network.
 The South African National Space Agency's ground
station is also providing satellite tracking, telemetry and
command services.[

14. The mission consist of the following three phases
1.Geo Centric Phase
2.Helio Centric Phase
3.Martian Phase

16. EVENTS OCCURRED
 ISRO's PSLV-XL placed the satellite in Earth orbit at
03:20 IST, on 5 November 2013.
 On 01 December 2013 at 00:49 IST, a 23-minute
engine firing initiated the transfer of MOM away
from Earth orbit and on heliocentric trajectory
toward Mars.
 The plan was for insertion into Mars orbit on 24
September 2014, approximately 2 days after the
arrival of NASA's MAVEN orbiter
