Re: Mangalyaan : ISRO's Mars Orbiter Mission
This is an event only for jingos. MSM will get interested only on 24th when actual insertion is carried out. I have a question - due to this test firing, the velocity of MOM would have changed, right? To what extent? Let me pile up on this. Did MOM re-orient and test fire the engine? Is the new v n...

Re: Mangalyaan : ISRO's Mars Orbiter Mission
Basically there will be a window of a few hours within which orbital insertion can take place. The exact time at which LAM starts firing will be left to ISRO to decide.saravana wrote:Isro page says 4am
