India's low-cost mission to Mars successfully entered the red planet's orbit Wednesday. India has become the first nation to send a satellite into orbit around Mars on its first attempt, and the first Asian nation to do so. In scenes broadcast live on Indian TV, scientists broke into wild cheers as the orbiter's engines completed 24 minutes of burn time to manoeuvre the spacecraft into its designated place around the red planet.Reaching the fourth planet from the sun is a major feat for the developing country of 1.2 billion people, most of whom are poor. At the same time, India has a robust scientific and technical educational system that has produced millions of software programmers, engineers and doctors.
