The Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), also called Mangalyaan, is a spacecraft orbiting Mars that was launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) in November 2013. It is India's first interplanetary mission and made ISRO the fourth space agency to reach Mars. The primary objective was to demonstrate India's technological capability to design, plan and manage an interplanetary mission. It also carried scientific instruments to study Mars' surface features, morphology, mineralogy and atmosphere. Mangalyaan successfully entered Mars' orbit in September 2014 and continues to transmit data, making it one of the least expensive Mars missions to date.

5. THE MANGALYAAN
• The Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), also called Mangalyaan is a
spacecraft orbiting Mars since 24 September 2014.
• It was launched on 5 November 2013 by ISRO.
• The MOM probe lifted-off from First Launch Pad at Satish Dhawan
Space Centre, A.P, using PSLV rocket C25 at 09:08 UTC(14:38 IST).
• The launch window was 20 days (approx.) long and started on 28
October 2013.
• It is India’s first interplanetary mission and ISRO become the fourth
space agency to reach Mars after the Soviet Union, NASA, and
European Space Agency.
• The spacecraft is currently being monitored from the Spacecraft
Control Centre at ISTARC in Bangalore with support from IDSN
antennae at Bayalu.

7. HISTORY
• The MOM mission concept began with a feasibility study in 2010,
after the launch of lunar satellite Chandrayaan-1 in 2008.
• The Govt. of India approved the project on 3 August 2012.
• The space agency had planned the launch on 28 October 2013 but
was postponed to 5 November 2013 due to poor weather in Pacific
Ocean.
• Assembly of the PSLV-XL, designated C25, started on 5 August 2013.
• The mounting of five scientific instruments was completed at ISRO
centre Bangalore, and the finished spacecraft was shipped to
Sriharikota on 2 October 2013 for integration to the PSLV-XL launch
vehicle.
• The satellite’s development was fast-tracked and completed in a
record 15 months.

8. • NASA affirmed on 5 October 2013 it would provide communications
and navigation support to the mission.
• During a meeting in 30 September 2014, NASA and ISRO officials
signed an agreement to establish a pathway for future joint mission
to explore Mars
• One of the working group’s objectives will be to explore potential
coordinated observations and science analysis between MAVEN
orbiter and MOM, as well as other current and future Mars missions.

10. OBJECTIVES
• The primary objective of the MOM is to showcase India’s rocket
launch systems, spacecraft-building, and operations capabilities and
to develop the technologies required for design, planning,
management and operations of an interplanetary mission.
• Deep-space communication, navigation, mission planning and
management
• The secondary objective is to explore Mars’s surface features,
morphology, mineralogy and Martian atmosphere using indigenous
scientific instruments.

12. SPACECRAFT
• Mass: The lift-off mass was 1,350 kg, including 852 kg of
propellant.
• Power: Electric power is generated by three solar array panels
of 1.8 m x 1.4 m each , for a maximum of 840 watts of power
generation in Mars orbit.
• Propulsion: A liquid fuel engine with a thrust of 440 N is used
for orbit raising and insertion into Mars orbit. The orbiter also
has eight 22 N thrusters for attitude control. Its propellant
mass is 852 kg.

15. PSLV(POLAR SATELLITE LAUNCH VEHICLE)
• The Polar Satellite Launch
Vehicle commonly known by its
abbreviation PSLV, is an
expendable launch system
developed and operated by the
Indian Space Research
Organization (ISRO). It was
developed to allow India to
launch its Indian Remote Sensing
(IRS) satellites into sun
synchronous orbits

18. PAYLOAD
• The 15 kg (33 lb) scientific
payload consists of five
instruments:
• Atmospheric studies Lyman-
Alpha Photometer (LAP) ——
Measuring the
deuterium/hydrogen ratio will
allow to estimate the process of
water loss to outer space.
• Methane Sensor For Mars
(MSM) to check for methane in
the atmosphere of Mars, if any,
and map its sources.

19. • Mars Exospheric Neutral Composition
Analyzer (MENCA) — is a quadrupole
mass analyzer capable of analyzing the
neutral composition of particles in the
exosphere.
• Surface imaging studies Thermal
Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (TIS) —
will measure the temperature and
emissivity of the Martian surface, this
can allow mapping surface
composition and mineralogy of Mars.
• Mars Colour Camera (MCC) — will
provide images in the visual spectrum,
providing context information for the
other science instruments

22. TRACKING
• The Indian Deep Space Network will
perform navigation and tracking
operations of this mission, and
NASA's Deep Space Network will
provide support services during the
non-visible period of the Indian Deep
Space Network. The signals from the
orbiter take as much as 20 min to
reach earth
• Also some of the ships positioned in
south pacific ocean will also track
and coordinate the spacecraft

24. MISSION COST
• The total cost of the mission was approximately 450, making it the
least-expensive Mars mission to date.
• The ISRO completed 125 crore of required studies of the orbiter.
• The satellites costs 153 crore and the rest of the budget has been
attributed to ground stations and relay upgrades that will be used for
other ISRO projects.
