Apologies for bumping this old thread but today ISRO held a one day workshop on Mars Orbiter Mission on occasion of it completing eight years in Martian orbit, giving an overview of whole mission.
https://www.facebook.com/ISRO/videos/5474505689310772/ Yet to go through it all but I\'ll add anything important if found. Edit: Per Nandini Harinath (@2hr6min), in April 2022 they faced increasingly long eclipse period and barely survived 6.5 to 7 hrs long ones. In near future there are no long eclipse phases but they barely have any propellant left onboard as 20 kg out of 33 kg of it were spent in Jan 2017 modifying the spacecraft\'s orbit to survive oncoming eclipses back then and ~2.5 kg per year propellant is required for maintenance. Edit2: Panel discussion with plausible future roadmap. https://www.facebook.com/ISRO/videos/504033751113966/ |
