PROUDLY PRESENTS

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.

MAIN MENU

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.

• 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.

MAIN MENU

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.

MAIN MENU

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.

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

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.

• 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

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

MAIN MENU

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.
