The first 3D image of Mars is sent from the MOM ship
India's spacecraft has just sent back to Earth the first 3D image of Mars. Earlier, this ship became the pride of South Asia when it flew into orbit successfully and sent some color photos of the surface of the red planet.
The Indian Space Research Agency (ISRO) on October 8 announced a 3D photo of Mars on its Facebook page, and instructed people how to view photos with 3D glasses, according to UPI.

According to ISRO, the 3D image is made up of many color images taken by the Mars color camera equipped with the Mars Orbiter Mission spacecraft, also known as Mangalyaan.
Earlier, AFP quoted ISRO V. Koteswara Rao's senior scientist, saying: "The Martian color camera on the spacecraft began working immediately after the ship stabilized on elliptical orbit around Mars. and it has captured dozens of quality photographs of the Martian surface and its surroundings. "
It is known that India surpassed China and Japan, the two countries in turn failed to aspire to take ships to Mars in 2011 and 2003, when the Mars Orbiter Mission entered orbit into the red planet successfully. on September 24, after a 10-month journey through 410 million km long.
Only a day later, on September 25, the Mars Orbiter Mission sent the first photos of Mars to the surface formed by craters, taken from an altitude of 7,300 km.

In addition, this event also helped India become the first country to successfully implement the mission of exploring Mars on the first launch. While Europe, America and Russia have sent spacecraft flying to orbit and even landed on the surface of the red planet, after several failed attempts.
It is worth mentioning that India's first mission to explore Mars costs only $ 74 million, much cheaper than the cost of $ 671 million that the US Space and Aeronautics Agency (NASA) has taken to ship the Maven. fly to Mars.
The Maven, which stands for NASA's Atmospheric and Unstable Evolution Mission, on September 22 successfully penetrated into orbit of Mars, beginning the mission to study climate change to pay. The question is why the red planet loses its warmth and water over time.

Meanwhile, the ship Mars Orbiter Mission carries the mission of studying the Martian atmosphere, in search of traces of methane - a sign of the existence of life; take color photos of the red planet; Find out if there is water on it.
