In a tribute to India's space-technology
prowess, Google is celebrating with a doodle
today the completion of one month by
Mangalyaan in an orbit around Mars. India's
Mars Orbiter Mission, or Mangalyaan
(Sanskrit for Mars craft), started orbiting
Mars on September 24.
Given that Google normally comes up with
doodles to mark anniversaries, that is, annual
events, this gesture of the search giant is
rare. The doodle will be visible only in India.
