Deepa Balakrishnan reports 5 images received from #MarsOrbiter, taken ~2hrs after arrival, to be released in few days ibnlive.in.com/news/just-12-hours-into-...
Reflecting on the success of #MarsOrbiter Mission: www.planetary.org/blogs/emily-lakdawalla/2... (and correcting my unintended slight to @esa last night)
Just heard @ibnlive that #MarsOrbiter has sent five pictures back to Earth. Will look for them as soon as I am done with TV interview!
Trying again to connect with @ibnlive to talk #MarsOrbiter today at 9pm IST / 8:30am PDT. It it works it'll be here http://ibnlive.in.com/livetv/
.@dpsatishcnnibn said earlier that the first images could maybe come back from #MarsOrbiter "this evening" India time. Can't wait!
RT @veda_cosmos: @PMOIndia: "entire country, schools and colleges should celebrate today, honor the scientists " @isro #MarsOrbiter
Via @dpsatishcnnibn: Modi: "Innovation involves risk. Only if we take risk, we will succeed. We have taken that risk." #MarsOrbiter
#MarsOrbiter has a very small payload, only 15kg (capability scales with mass). Appropriate for first demonstration of deep-space travel.
An important point about #MarsOrbiter: unlike predecessor Chandrayaan, this one's instruments are ALL Indian-built. 100% Indian spacecraft
Via @dpsatishcnnibn: Modi: "With scarce resources our great scientists have achieved it. I am really proud." #MarsOrbiter
Translated by @dpsatishcnnibn: Modi: "History has been created today. We have achieved something near impossible." #MarsOrbiter
India's #MarsOrbiter joins *six* other active spacecraft at Mars: Odyssey, Mars Express, Opportunity, Mars Recon Orbiter, Curiosity, MAVEN
OK everybody sit down in mission control you have a healthy spacecraft to monitor!! ;) #MarsOrbiter
India has become the first country EVER to enter Mars orbit on the first attempt! Congratulations!! #MarsOrbiter
Any moment now...we hope... #pleasecallhome #MarsOrbiter
While I am waiting...here is one side of #MarsOrbiter Mission's solar paddle, complete (and to scale) http://t.co/Yp6ovRXkzp
Gah, I just realized that 11 minutes is the duration of eclipse. #MarsOrbiter will be occulted by Mars for 23 very long minutes.
Does anybody know how long #MarsOrbiter needs to burn in order to achieve Mars capture? (I don't)
At 02:19 UTC, #MarsOrbiter will go behind Mars as seen from Earth, be out of contact for 11 LONG minutes
"Burn started on the exact timeline" #MarsOrbiter
Just heard applause in #MarsOrbiter mission control -- could be transition to thruster control? Should've had confirmation at 01:57
Standing by to hear of confirmation of #MarsOrbiter eclipse entry or transition to thruster control. @isro tweeting SCET, not ERT timeline
.@isro has reported #MarsOrbiter to be in Mars eclipse, but we will not receive confirmation of that on the ground until 01:54 UTC
.@dpsatishcnnibn reports "ISRO scientists are very happy. Clapping and cheering. It has been flawless so far." #MarsOrbiter
Forward rotation of #MarsOrbiter confirmed!
