The document summarizes key details about India's Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM). It discusses why Mars was chosen as the target, how Mars is similar to Earth, important milestones of the MOM project from 2012-2014, the scientific payloads onboard the spacecraft, and details about the successful launch of the spacecraft onboard the PSLV C-25 rocket in November 2013 from Sriharikota. It provides an overview of Mangalyaan at a glance including its mission, controller, launch vehicle used, weight and other specifications.

3. Why Mars ?
Why our scientist of ISRO choose
Mars for launch a spacecraft ?
It is not just wild guess. Mars is the
most closer planet to the Earth.
Because Mars is our neighbor planet
in space. And if the mars have
methane gas-that is one the sign of
life. If that is possible mars is the

4. Why MARS?
• Surface conditions
• Similar geology
• Availability of water
• Atmosphere (thin)
• Natural conditions similar to
arctic and Antarctic

6. Mars is like EARTH
• Climate range similar to Earth
• Sky and clouds, dust storms

7. MARS is like EARTH
 24.6 hour rotation
 Polar ice caps
 Similar axis tilt
 Magnetic field
 Volcanoes

Mission.
2013 August 5th: ISRO’s experiment with 5 payloads.
2013 October 2nd: Spacecraft went to Sriharikkotta. The Spacecraft made
with 15 months, in record speed.
2013 October 5th: NASA messaged they can’t help us for
communication. We decided to go ahead with mission.
2013 October 10th: Spacecraft connected with Launch vehicle.
2013 October 14th: Fuel filling finished successfully. Launching date were
fixed to October 22nd.
2013 October 22nd: But the Atmosphere was bad. Launching date
changed to 2013 November 5th.
2014 November 5th: Mangalyan was launched from Sriharikkotta. 20-25
days spacecraft moved on Earth’s orbit.
