Google has put out a special doodle on its home page for India, that has marked 'Mangalyaan's' one month in Mars orbit.
The doodle has shown the 'Mangalyaan' in outer space with a portion of the red planet in the background, a style of space-related images that were often used to adorn school notebooks in the late 80s and 90s.
Mangalyaan, which had been blasted off into space on November 5 last year, has entered the Mars orbit on September 24. It has been one of the biggest scientific achievements for India, putting ISRO, India's space agency, in the select group of four space agencies that have successfully sent a probe to Mars orbit.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has congratulated the ISRO in its success, pointing out that, a mere 21 out of 51 missions had succeeded so far and that India has created history as their mission had prevailed.
NASA in the US, has been running a Twitter account -- @MarsOrbiter - through which it shared the mission related news with the world, the account has over 1,68,000 followers today.
