I'm an old fart. Mr. Natural was my go to, plus the occasional orange barrel (strong and clean).

All jokes aside, consider that it costs us about $10,000 to put one pound of payload into orbit around our own planet. We could move around four tons of payload to an altitude of a hundred or so miles for what it cost the Indians to move about a half ton of payload into orbit around another fricking planet a hundred or so MILLION miles away. They actually sent more mass than just the satellite to Mars because once you get there you have to slow down or you'll just fly past. The Indians had to send all the fuel and propulsion required to slow down and insert that half ton of payload into orbit around Mars once you they got there. The important point is not that they took pictures we did 30 or 40 years ago. The important point is that even with the benefit of 60 or so years of space experience, we can't do it cheaper than they can.

The Indians frankly accomplished an amazing feat for what they spent on it.
