With upcoming Mars mission, India looks to join elite club

The country is getting ready to undertake its first inter-planetary voyage and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has, in record time, put together a satellite that will fly all the way to the planet, Earth's closest neighbour. With this, India will enter a select club of nations like USA, Russia, China, Japan and the European Space Agency that have dared to go to Mars. (For more on India's Mars Mission, click here.)
