India's Mars probe boarded a 100,000 km orbit
India's first Mars probe
India's first Mars probe was "successful" when it reached a higher orbit around the earth this morning, November 12, following a failure yesterday due to engine malfunction, according to AFP.
>>>India successfully launched the spacecraft onto Mars
Mars Orbiter Mission probe was launched into space on November 5 by rocket PSLV-C25 to begin the 11-month, 400-million-km journey through space to orbit the red planet.

The 1.350kg Mars Orbiter Mission , developed by the Indian Space Research Agency (ISRO), was launched into space by smaller missiles than US or Russian missiles in the same purpose. Therefore, the ship will fly around Earth's orbit for almost a month to get the necessary velocity to get it out of the gravity of the earth.
On November 12, the Mars Orbiter Mission has completed lifting to an orbit of 100,000km above the ground, after unsuccessful on 11/11 due to a propulsion error, AFP quoted ISRO as saying in An announcement.
Mars Marsiter Mission Orbiter Mission, also called Mangalyaan , costs only 73 million USD (quite cheap compared to $ 455 million for the US Space and Aeronautics Agency's NASA launch of the ship) If it is expected to be carried out on November 18, if full success will mark an important step in India's space exploration program.
If you get to Mars orbit to do the task of studying the atmosphere to find traces of methane - a sign of the existence of life, take color pictures of the red planet, find out if there is The water on it or not, like that, Mars Orbiter Mission will help the Indian space industry to surpass China and Japan, the two countries in turn failed to aspire to ship ships to Mars in 2011 and 2003.
It is known that in 2008, India successfully launched Chandrayaan-1 onto orbit the moon and then announced the discovery of the existence of the country on "Sister Hang". This event is considered by New Delhi to be a national pride.
