ISRO'S TWITTER ACCOUNT IS A REAL PERSON AND THIS IS WHAT IT'S UP TO | Social Goat Skip to main content

Launched on November 5, 2013, Mangalyaan, India’s Mars Orbiter Mission made history. It successfully entered the Mars orbit on September 24, 2014, and will soon complete four years! A major milestone since it was predicted to last only 180 days. However, it was not only circling the Mars orbit but also sending out details of its whereabouts along with some astonishing pictures. MOM, as it’s fondly called, has a verified twitter handle - @MarsOrbiter that boasts of a massive 509k followers. And since the posts been so many relatable, we have enough reason to believe it is a real person.

For starters, the bio reads, “India's first mission to Mars. Orbiting the Red Planet since Sep 24, 2014. Explorer. Loves science, photography and long cruises.” Sounds exactly like a teenager who is eager to reveal his fun, cool side right? Well, here are 10 tweets that made us feel like ISRO’s twitter account was a real person. Take a look. 

1. The one who plays the guessing game.

A little sneak-peak is a must, especially when it’s the beginning of India’s journey into space. Don’t you think so?  

2. The one who likes to show-off.

3. The motivator who celebrates every little progress.

This is all of us and basically life! Also, the enchanting picture is aww-worthy.

4. The one that maintains relationships, even when thousands of miles away.

The Mars Orbiter congratulating Elon Musk on his revolutionary space exploration plans is just like us keeping track of our friends. And of course, missing home every now and then is absolutely human too. 

5. The one that loves clicking pictures. Especially selfies!

You don’t get to see a close-up of the Valles Marineris from space, often. So this was surely inspiring. Also, us posting a good click, cause why not!
