A milestone voyage to the red planet.....

1. MANGALYAAN

2. BRIEF HISTORY
• The government of india approved the project on 3
August 2012.
• The spacecraft structure and propulsion hardware
configurations are similar to Chandrayaan 1, India's
first successful robotic lunar probe .
• If successful, ISRO would become the fourth space
agency to reach Mars, after Roscosmos NASA and
ESA

3. OBJECTIVES
• Design and realisation of a Mars orbiter with a
capability to perform Earth bound maneuvers, cruise
phase of 300 days, Mars orbit insertion / capture, and
on-orbit phase around Mars.
• Deep space communication, navigation, mission
planning and management.
• Incorporate autonomous features to handle
contingency situations.
• The secondary objectives are scientific, and include the
study of Mars surface features, morphology,
mineralogy and the Martian atmosphere.

4. LAUNCH AND ORBIT
• launch will place from sriharikota and the Mars
Orbiter will be placed into Earth orbit, then six
engine firings will raise that orbit to one with an
apogee of 215,000 km and a perigee of 600 km,
where it will remain for about 25 days.
• A final firing in 30 November 2013 will send MOM
onto an interplanetary trajectory.
• Mars orbit insertion is planned for 21 September
2014 and would allow the spacecraft to enter a
highly elliptical orbit of 372 km x 80,000 km around
Mars.

7. 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

10. PAYLOAD
• The 15 kg (33 lb) scientific
payload consists of five
instruments:
• Atmospheric studies LymanAlpha 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.

11. • 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

12. MARS ORBITOR

13. 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

14. MISSION COST
• The government of India approved the project
on 3 August 2012,after the Indian Space
Research Organization completed 1.25 billion
(US$19 million) of required studies for the
orbiter. The total project cost may be up to
4.54 billion (US$69 million).
