In this handout photograph released by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on September 25, 2014, the surface of Mars is seen from a height of 7,300m in the first image taken by the ISRO Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) spacecraft. India won Asia's race to Mars on September 24 when its unmanned Mangalyaan spacecraft successfully entered the Red Planet's orbit after a 10-month journey on a tiny budget. Scientists at mission control let out wild cheers and applause after the gold-coloured craft fired its main engine and slipped into the planet's orbit following a 660-million kilometre (410-million mile) voyage. [Xinhua photo]
