Launching satellites
Chinese	放卫星
Meaning	refers to the exaggerated achievements in the Great Leap Forward

Launching satellites^[2] (Chinese: 放卫星), spelled 'fang weixing' in Hanyu Pinyin,^[3] alternatively translated as putting satellites into orbit,^[4] refers to a socialist construction campaign that began in 1958 during the "Great Leap Forward" and was anxious for success by 1959.^[5] During the Great Leap Forward, exaggeration was prevalent throughout China,^[6] with false reports exaggerating food production, and these false reports of "wheat satellites," "rice satellites," "grain satellites," "tobacco satellites," and other similar acts in various industries were unanimously called "Launching Satellites".^[7]

The term "launching satellites" was coined in honor of Sputnik 1, the first artificial Earth satellite launched by the USSR.^[8]

China successfully launched a sounding rocket in 1964 and the satellite Dong Fang Hong I in 1970.
