Indian probe to explore Mars began on the path to the destination, the press service of the Indian Space Agency (ISRO) in Twitter -account organization.
«Mangalyan» must spend in the way of a little less than 10 months: it is expected to reach orbit Red planet at the end of September 2014. Success is not guaranteed, not all vehicles sent to Mars, reached the goal, but the Indian authorities are already talking about an important breakthrough and the prospects of its space industry.
They believe that the Indian space transportation should attract investors to its cheapness, when the successes prove challenging missions reliability ISRO. Such victories can be attributed sending probe “Chandrayaan-1″ on the moon in 2008.
Satellite Mars “Mangalyan” was launched from the Baikonur Indian Sriharikota November 5, 2013. Then start was moved from October 28 to the backup date due to weather conditions. Almost a month apparatus expected to orbit the Earth beginning of his journey.
Star Called Sun crushed hopes astronomers and ordinary people on Earth enjoy the bright comet flight ISON. Celestial body could not stand the rapprochement with the luminary and crumbled into pieces of ice cloud much earlier than scientists would have liked.
Last night leading astrophysicists around the world spent in anticipation of the colorful light show century – towards the Sun at a speed of more than 130 000 kilometers per hour rushed Comet ISON. Hopes for a “warm” meeting entrusted much – in extreme close to the luminary comet tail wag promised, leaving two weeks heavenly trail. Happy ending, however, nobody expected, the collapse of the cosmic body, and so was inevitable. Especially that actively lose weight comet started back on the road, leaving behind a trail of gas and dust for thousands of kilometers.
Unfortunately, reports on the actual approach to the Sun ISON now sound like obituaries, head of the comet looks blurred low-contrast cloud without sharp boundaries – is a clear sign of nuclear fragmentation. Now we continue to see its fall splendor. Initially, we had hoped that ISON will behave according to the scenario of a comet “Lovejoy” – will take place at perihelion, reaching a peak brightness, and then disintegrate. But hopes were dashed, “- says astrophysicist Karl Battams, Research Center Naval.
neared the Sun, cosmic wanderer disintegrated into a bunch of pieces of ice, missing to the nearest star to the point in its orbit. However, NASA had to turn the journey ISON now reality show – experts have collected pictures taken spacecraft, a short video, which is visible to the flight path of the comet.
By the way, the first to detect the speed in September 2012 failed to Artem Novichonok from Petrozavodsk and Vitaly Nevsky from Vitebsk with a telescope mounted in Kislovodsk. Because it is built into the international system ISON, comet gave a similar name. Tirelessly overcoming kilometers of the road space, it just over a year has become a real “star” in the world. If the comet broke up, then watch it could be during December in the Northern Hemisphere. Some scholars but do not exclude the possibility that low-contrast trail debris ISON still be able to decorate the sky briefly.

Russian cargo spacecraft “Progress M-21M” Saturday nominally docked with the International Space Station (ISS), but at the last stage specialists have decided to move to manual docking, which successfully being carried out on the ISS cosmonaut Oleg Kotov. Officially, the reason is not called, it will call the special commission on the investigation results. Media believe that automatic refused.
“Progress M-21M” was launched on November 26 with the help of carrier rocket “Soyuz-U” from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. This ship flew to the ISS is not the new “short” six-hour scheme, since it tested rendezvous system “Course-by.” Media believe that it has a problem and when “progress” had connections to 60 meters.
Commission may be called reason for the transition to manual mode with the docking of “Progress M-21M” from the ISS have until Tuesday, RIA “Novosti” head of the Russian segment of the ISS mission Vladimir Solovyov: “Preliminary causes early to say. likely Monday and Tuesday will be clear what happened “.
If
“Course-by” successfully pass the test, the system will be installed not only on cargo ships such as “Progress”, but also manned “Soyuz”.
“Progress” delivered to the ISS food and water for the crew. Truck brought to the station books, gifts, fuel tanks refueling system, medical equipment, clothes, personal hygiene items and equipment for scientific experiments conducted on the ISS. “Progress” also delivered equipment for the U.S. segment of the station, including food and sanitary facilities. The total weight of all cargo is nearly 2.4 tons.

MOSCOW, November 30. Cargo spacecraft “Progress M-21M” on Saturday night docked with the International Space Station (ISS). According to the Mission Control Center (MCC), the truck landed on a modular bay of the service module “Zvezda”.
Docking was carried out at the scheduled time in manual mode under the guidance of station commander Oleg Kotov without the use of new equipment “Course-by.” Decision to abandon the use of this equipment was made by the flight at the last stage of convergence of the ship with the ISS passes.
Flight Director of the Russian segment of the ISS Vladimir Solovyov said the commission may call reason for the transition to manual mode with the docking of “Progress M-21M” from the ISS have until Tuesday, said RIA “Novosti”.
According to the agency, almost all of maneuver for docking with the ISS was performed automatically by the system “Course-by,” but at the last stage for some unknown reason it was decided to switch to manual mode with the docking station.
Several media reports
that docking occurred in manual mode due to the failure of the new system convergence “Course-by” at a distance of about 60 meters to the ISS.
failure when using the system “Course-by” does not happen the first time. In 2012 ended unsuccessfully checking new equipment. The investigation established that the cause of failure was the glue caught in the opening mechanism.
Meanwhile, a recent test, which took place on November 28 ended successfully. Then “Progress M-21M” before docking with the ISS safely held rapprochement with the test station using a “Course-by”.
Until now, the “progress” used a system of “course”, but on the modernized system “Course-by” installed a new element base.
After testing
“Course-by” on “Progress M-21M” on all subsequent Russian cargo ships of this type to be used is a new system.

MOSCOW, November 26 – RIA Novosti. Comet ISON, which will take place in a few hours at a minimum distance from the Sun, can by its brightness 10-20 times to beat Venus, told RIA Novosti astronomer engaged search for comets and asteroids.
Comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) was opened in September 2012, Russian astronomer Artem Novichonok and his counterpart from Belarus Vitaly Nevsky. Scientists believe that this comet may be the brightest in this decade, some said that its luster is comparable to the Moon. However, its brightness as it approaches the sun grew not as fast as expected.
“No” moon “, of course, will not, it’s not a comet Hale-Bopp with 60 kilometers of the nucleus, the nucleus of this comet has only 1.5-2 km in diameter. However solar observatory SOHO images show that its brightness reached approximately -4.5 th magnitude, ie the brightness of Venus “- a spokesman said. He added that if a comet in the sky was now farther from the sun is so bright that when it would be visible with binoculars even in the daytime sky.
One of the brightest comets decades committed to the Sun. Frames flight
At 22.45 MSK
Thursday comet should pass at a minimum distance from the Sun – 1.16 million kilometers, which is 40 times the orbit of Mercury. At this point it must achieve higher brightness values.
“We can expect that its brightness reaches -5, -6 magnitude, and since the change in magnitude per unit means an increase in the brightness of 10 times, we can say that it will be 10-20 times brighter than Venus,” – said astronomer.
Now
comet is visible only for pictures with C2 coronagraph solar observatory SOHO. Many astronomers believe that the comet nucleus is already collapsed, and after perihelion passage the comet finally disintegrate, becoming a cloud of dust. If it is “survive”, then it will be held December 26 at the minimum distance from the Earth – 64 million miles away.
