ISRO's MOM has spent one year orbiting Mars !

[Tech Support]

ISRO's Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) marks a year in orbit around Mars! The maiden Indian satellite is still going strong with all sensors still functioning and ISRO predicts that it will remain in service for several years. To celebrate the occasion, ISRO has released a Mars Atlas with more than a hundred pictures of Mars.

" The images from Mars Color Camera (MCC) have provided unique information about Mars at varying spatial resolutions. It has obtained Mars Global data showing clouds, dust in atmosphere and surface albedo variations, when acquired from apoapsis at around 72000 km. On the other hand high resolution images acquired from periapsis show details of various morphological features on the surface of Mars. Some of these images have been showcased in this atlas. The images have been categorized depending upon the Martian surface and atmospheric processes. "

While I congratulate ISRO on the milestone, I can't help but find this thread's title to be inappropriately hilarious

ahhh, you should hear some of the ISRO scientists talk about their 'mom' and 'naughty boy'

Good job, ISRO.

I really like MOM's photos, they are among the best out there of Mars.

Now they need to send more probes with similar naming schemes!

For example:

MOM for Mercury

MOM for Metis (This would be cool)

MOM for Minmus

Mars needed MOMS, not just one MOM.

Still, that's auite an accomplishment. Way to go!
