Mangalyaan - Launch Successful !!!



Mangalyaan Mission, India's first interplanetary mission launched on November 5, 2013 From Sriharikota is launched successfully. 

Mangalyaan will be mapping and studying the surfaces of the red planet Mars.  It is expected to reach into Mars' orbit in the month of September or October 2014. India will have to speed up its process as Mars' moon will be nearest to Earth in 2014 September. For this, India will have to launch in end of 2013 to reach its destination, conserving time and fuel. India is the third Asian Country to attempt Mars Mission, and if it will reach its destination, would become the fourth country to reach Mars.
