• Resumen

  • It's the Mount Everest of the solar system, conquered only by an elite group. Now India is set to join the US, Russia and Europe in the exclusive club by sending a probe to Mars that is expected to launch early November 2013. The main goal of the $73 million Mars Orbiter Mission is to prove that India can put a working probe into Mars orbit--more than half of all Mars missions so far have failed.
