Re: India's Mission to Mars

Hi all - haven't logged in here in awhile - just thought I'd post the latest news on the success of India's Mars Orbiter Mission. MOM has successfully achieved orbit around Mars:

Here are the latest pics, and I'm sure there'll be more to come:

The mission was planned to have a life of 6 months, but that may be extended due to the fact that the orbiter arrived at Mars with more fuel left over than anticipated.
