ISRO has launched a spaceship to the Mars. It is one of the
biggest achievements for ISRO as well as for the entire country. Till now there
are only few countries to have this achievement. In this I will try to give you
the initial information of the ISRO’s Mars mission. In my upcoming articles you
will be able to know more and more about this mission.

WHY MARS:
Among all the planets of the solar system, Mars is the one
which attracted the scientists and humans most attention as well as interest.
The main reason for this is that the environment conditions are somehow very
similar to that of Earth. For ages, humans have been dreaming about the life on
Mars. However, the question that is still not answered is weather Mars has an
environment or not and even if it has then weather life can evolve and sustain
their or not.

Space organizations of
different countries are planning to find the answers to these questions and
they want it very soon. So, many countries are planning to send their spacecraft’s
on Mars. The major organizations in this field are NASA of USA, ISRO of INDIA,

OBJECTIVES
The main objective is to design the technology is to design and
develop the plan for the interplanetary mission which includes habitation on
the MARS.
Technical
Objective:
1.
Design and realization of mars orbit. If
everything will go as planned then ISRO will be the first organization on this
planet to give the exact design and structure of MARS’s orbits. The Mangalyaan
will take 300 days to get the exact structure of these orbits.
2.
ISRO is trying to develop deep space
communication, navigation, mission planning and management.
Scientific
Objectives:
Exploration of:
1.
Mars surface features.
2.
Morphology of MARS.
3.
Mineralogy of the red planet.
4.
Martian atmosphere.
 |
Internal
structure of Spaceship and instruments installed in it.
|
According to some scientists and astronauts ISRO’s mars
mission is not only cheaper than the NASA’s mars mission but it will be more
effective also. As far as price is concerned ISRO’s scientists took only the
one-tenth of the money that was invested by NASA.

We wish the entire team of ISRO for the successful launch of
the spaceship and we hope that this mission will be a grand success and will
change our views about the solar system and may provide new place to live.
