Mars Colour Camera

During its four-year mission, Mangalyaan's MCC has acquired more than 980 images using its 16 different exposure modes. Specifically, the camera incorporates an electro-optical sensor that images the Martian surface in three colours, red, green and blue, and offers a spatial resolution that varies between 20 to 4,000 metres (66 to 13,133 feet).

The main science objectives of this camera are to unveil the secrets of Mars' surface features, and monitor the dust and clouds around it. One of its key achievements was spotting that the clouds over different mountains, for example Olympus and Elysium Mons, have a unique morphology.
