How NASA helped India's MOM to MARS

[Water Car Engineer]

No you're wrong. Clearly these guys are NASA engineers with facepaint.

You just might be right... Never even thought about that...

 

[SirHatesALot]

No you're wrong. Clearly these guys are NASA engineers with facepaint.

Both of you are wrong these are NASA engineers of Bangladeshi origins.

 

[Water Car Engineer]

Both of you are wrong these are NASA engineers of Bangladeshi origins.

I don't know why stupid Indians are trying to prove MOM is an Indian mission. That was a NASA mission it is proven many a time by the OP. How many more proofs do you need ? Wake up you poor toilet lests Indians and learn something from Pakistan's mighty achievements in science & space exploration..

When it comes to Space and beyond, NASA is Kick ***.

If I'm not wrong, no other country got World Wide Deep space network of antennas.

You are clearly ill informed there.. Pakistan has Deep space network of antennas even on Mars!!

Now why are we rubbing these out of the world tech Pure People with dumb Indian achievements ?? We did bcoz we can U did not bcoz u cannot even vision that.( As evident by Jhon Asad)

@VelocuR @AsianUnion @Speeder 2 : Chalo lo tumlog duniya ke sare space agency ki help. Pura ka pura roket utao jaise NK se pehle uthaya tha aur launch karo apna remote sensing satellite. Complete with in house design and R&D. Let's see are u able to do that. And donn cry that you donn have funds or reason. U had funds to buy nukes and continue to do so. You just had a flood which killed a lots of ur brethren. Now as u say u are the flag bearer of musalmans , right ? Then why not place satelites in orbit which will notify all musalmans of all natural and man made disasters. As you know, We[ raw/cia/mosad/kgb/abc/fab/ert ..../S.H.I.E.L.D/Jews/Evil Yindoos and all] are hell bound to kill all musalmans with floods, polio, earthquake and natural death, placing those sats in orbit are necessary for ur survival. If you do not do that all of Islamic (Not-So-)Intelligent life will extinct !!! Think of that.

Sorry if I did hurt some feeling, but with all the trolling out here, It was necessary.

 

[janon]

As expected, Pakistan tests Nasr.
Pakistan successfully test-fires Hatf-IX - Pakistan - DAWN.COM

 

[kṣamā]

Is it me or the test of this nasuur is always preceding successful Indian launches ??

 

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

NASA guys rock. Was'nt there a survey sometime back that around 30-40% of their scientists are of Indian origin.

That was hoax

The OP attempt to belittle Mars mission success seems silly.

Of course ISRO had help from NASA or ESA.

But if i were a Pakistani, I would be seriously concerned about the level of cooperation and level of access ISRO has to US technologies.

 

[anant_s]

What did they say

Success has many Fathers, Failure is an Orphan...

Yes NASA has helped, but the onus was on ISRO. Had the mission failed, people would've been baying for their blood, now in this hour of triumph, Let them Bathe in Glorious sunshine. ALONE.

Remember, NASA's MAVEN reached on September 21 and then India's MOM entered on September 23 in both space cooperation. Similar cooperation from previous Moon mission.

Indian scientists preparing to launch their Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) in November 2013 received an usual message — “lucky peanuts” from scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. JPL scientists bring a jar of peanuts to mission countdown — a tradition that goes back to the 1960s, when NASA had multiple mission failures in its Ranger lunar probes. During the launch of Ranger 7, someone in mission control was eating peanuts and passing the container around. The mission finally was a success and the credit went to those peanuts. NASA was sharing its tradition with the Indian Space Research Organisation when it posted a message on ISRO’s MOM Facebook page saying, “Good luck peanuts from NASA to ISRO!” “Go MOM!” and “Dare Mighty Things.”

The message showcases the recent elevated U.S. interest in India’s space program and the growing cooperation between the two space agencies. India’s earlier Moon mission, Chandrayaan-1, had two instruments from the United States: the Mini Synthetic Aperture Radar from the Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Laboratory and the Moon Mineralogy Mapper, an imaging spectrometer from Brown University and JPL. The Moon Mineralogy Mapper sensor was used in determining the existence of water molecules on the lunar surface.

India and the United States in recent years have also signed agreements and formed joint working groups to foster data sharing and expert collaboration. In 2012, for example, they signed implementing agreements for active collaborative on the U.S.-led Global Precipitation Measurement project and on the Megha-Tropiques and OceanSat-2 satellites. Both agreements committed the parties to active data sharing and cooperative development of algorithms to understand the data produced.

India’s Megha-Tropiques, a satellite mission to study the water cycle in the tropical region in the context of climate change, will now form part of the Global Precipitation Measurement mission being led by the U.S. and Japan. OceanSat-2 is an Indian remote sensing satellite launched in 2009. Under the cooperative agreement, OceanSat-2 was extensively utilized during Hurricane Sandy to determine ocean surface winds using its radio scatterometer. The image of Hurricane Sandy obtained by the scatterometer on Oct. 29, 2012, was transmitted to NASA and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration showing the storm heading toward the U.S. East Coast.

Most recently NASA and ISRO have agreed to collaborate and launch an L- and S-band synthetic aperture radar satellite. By gathering data in two wavelengths, researchers would be able to more accurately observe and classify varieties in vegetation, measure changes in the amount of carbon stored in vegetation, and observe changes in soil moisture. The two radars operating in L- and S-band are also meant to identify movement of Earth’s surface as small as a fraction of a centimeter, which could in turn help detect stress signals originating from earthquake fault lines and dormant volcanoes.

The joint mission is part of a NASA plan to launch a series of water and drought monitoring satellites over the next several years designed to observe and study Earth’s interconnected natural systems and to better visualize the changes occurring on Earth. The joint mission would fulfill some of the key scientific objectives of NASA’s proposed Deformation, Ecosystem Structure and Dynamics of Ice (DESDynI) environmental satellite. The U.S. National Research Council in 2007 identified DESDynI as a top Earth Science priority, but budget pressures have confined the mission to the drawing board.

This joint project is a welcome addition to the constellation of satellites engaged in climate observation. According to the Global Climate Observation System, approximately 50 essential variables are necessary for the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and about 50 percent of these variables are determined through satellite systems.

Given the budgetary constraints under which spacefaring nations like the United States and India operate, cooperation is a valuable means to furthering our understanding of Earth’s ecosystem. Both NASA and ISRO have made commitments to continue their cooperative engagement in space research.

NASA And India Sign Agreement For Future Cooperation
Feb. 1, 2008

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. - At a ceremony Friday at the Kennedy Space Center's visitor complex, NASA Administrator Michael Griffin and Indian Space Research Organization Chairman G. Madhavan Nair signed a framework agreement establishing the terms for future cooperation between the two agencies in the exploration and use of outer space for peaceful purposes.

"I am honored to sign this agreement with the India Space Research Organization," Griffin said. "This agreement will allow us to cooperate effectively on a wide range of programs of mutual interest. India has extensive space-related experience, capabilities and infrastructure, and will continue to be a welcome partner in NASA's future space exploration activities."

According to the framework agreement, the two agencies will identify areas of mutual interest and seek to develop cooperative programs or projects in Earth and space science, exploration, human space flight and other activities. The agreement replaces a soon-to- expire agreement signed on Dec. 16, 1997, which fostered bilateral cooperation in the areas of Earth and atmospheric sciences.

In addition to a long history of cooperation in Earth science, NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization also are cooperating on India's first, mission to the moon, Chandrayaan-1, which will be launched later this year. NASA is providing two of the 11 instruments on the spacecraft: the moon mineralogy mapper instrument and the miniature synthetic aperture radar instrument.

Now ..now... if the world does not feel that Pakistan is worthy if any high end space related cooperation... please dont take it out on ISRO...

Congrats India...but not a big deal

Nothing in article content is in line of article Title. An another futile effort to disgrace MOM.

NASA has 1/3 rd Indian. It is NASA which florishes because of India and not otherwise. Article talks about co operation in Mangal yaan. Actually we allowed US to put probe on Mangal Yaan than other way round.

Congrats India...but not a big deal

Yes Not a big deal for us. We will accomplish such a mission in future that it will MOM look like not a big deal.
