is collected during every orbit.
Mars Color Camera (MCC)
This tri-color camera gives images &
information about the surface features
and composition of Martian surface.
Useful to monitor the dynamic events
and weather.
Lyman Alpha Photometer (LAP)
Measures the relative abundance of
deuterium and hydrogen from Lyman-
alpha emission in the Martian upper
atmosphere. allows us to understand
especially the loss process of water from
the planet.

Sensors
• Star sensors: provide the inertial attitudeknowledge through identification of starpatterns in all phases of mission. Ensuressatellite pointing accuracy of +/- 0.05 degeach axis.
• Coarse Analogue Sun Sensor (CASS) andSolar Panel Sun Sensor (SPSS) are othersensors providing attitude reference for sunpointing.
• Due to the reduction in the solar irradiancein the Martian orbit there is a large variationin the input signals for which the preamplifier gain and sun presence thresholdvalues were optimized.

Thermal Environment:
• The spacecraft needs to cope with a wide range of thermal environment, fromNear Earth conditions with Sun and Earth contributions (hot case) to Marsconditions where reduced solar flux and longer eclipses give rise to cold case.
• The average solar flux at Mars orbit is 589 W/m2, or about 42% of what isexperienced by an Earth-orbiting spacecraft.
• As a result of the eccentricity of Mars's orbit, however, the solar flux at Marsvaries by +/- 19% over the Martian year, which is considerably more than the3.5% variation at Earth.
• Albedo fractions are similar to Earth's, being around 0.25 to 0.28 (average).

Mission Profile
• Six Liquid Engine Burns take thespacecraft gradually into adeparture hyperbolic trajectory.S/C escapes from the Earth’sSphere Of Influence (SOI) withEarth’s orbital velocity + ΔV boost.
o Spacecraft leaves Earth in adirection tangential to Earth’sorbit around sun. Encounters Marstangentially to its orbit aroundsun. The flight path is roughly onehalf of an ellipse around sun.
o The spacecraft arrives at Mars’SOI in a hyperbolic trajectory.When the spacecraft reaches MarsPeriapsis, it is captured into theplanned orbit around Mars byimparting ΔV retro.
