Mangalyaan: India's Mission to Mars 

Mangalyaan, also known as Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), was India's first spacecraft to orbit Mars. It was launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on November 5, 2013, and successfully entered Martian orbit on September 24, 2014.

This mission made India the first Asian country and the first country in the world to reach Mars on its maiden attempt. Mangalyaan's primary objective was to study the Martian atmosphere, surface features, and the presence of methane. It carried five scientific instruments to achieve these goals.

The mission was a significant achievement for India's space program and demonstrated the country's capability in interplanetary exploration.
