It is a robotic space probe mission to Mars named  Mars Science Laboratory .

It will study  

1) Whether traces water is found in the planet Mars.

2) Whether Mars has favourable condition for microbial life.

3) Whether Martian life existed.

It is an amusing achievement of scientists.

We are living in the era of advanced space technology.

Scientists are the real miracle makers.

The last seven minutes of landing made the NASA scientists nerve racking.

It was a terror which turned into over whelming joy.

Hats off to the NASA scientists and others who co-ordinated with them.

The Good news is 36% of NASA employees are Indians.
