Quite the accomplishment considering the number of probes sent, but that didn't make it.
Well done indeed!

Missions to Mars run about 50% failure rate.
Congrats! India.

Well, it is 2014.
The US was successful with Mariner 9 in 1971, our second attempt at a Mars orbiter.
Our first attempt was Mariner 8, and it was a launch failure.
Per Wiki.

the first country to successfully get a spacecraft into the Martian orbit on its maiden attempt. The ESA also did it on its first attempt. But ESA is not a country.
Congrats ISRO!

Mission was cheaper than making of the movie ‘Gravity’. That’s the real story.

They should be ashamed of themselves.
First, why aren’t they using that money to feed the poor and hungry in India?
Second, don’t they know that going to Mars will make Muslim countries feel bad about themselves?
Shame, shame, shame.
