LOL at Indians caught lying again!Firstly, and for the Nth time NASA DID NOT PROVIDE GUIDANCE, they provided with INSTRUMENTS for overlooking our space craft when it was hidden from our own SIMILAR INSTRUMENTS.
China asked for similar help from ESA.
Secondly YES, it still would be a success. The only impact if NASA's DSN was not involved, would be lesser RESERVE RCT Fuel left in the fuel tanks for the 22N thruster onboard. NASA's DSN provided ISRO with BONUS TRACKING DATA which when clubbed with the data generated by our own sensors helped the course correction algorithm to optimize the fuel utilization. But even without them we could have saved some fuel due accurate orbit raising and sling maneuvers .Currently we have ridiculous amounts of fuel left in that baby, almost double the amount of fuel required for it's 6mnth mission. And that is one of the main reason why NASA's DSN was used.
US govt shutdown may force Isro to delay October 28 Mars mission launch by 2 years - The Times of India
