"The space program of the People's Republic of China was initiated at the behest of the Central Military Commission for fulfilling national needs. The potential military utility of space was the central reason for China embarking on its national space program since 1956. The program was aimed at developing China's aviation, guided missiles, rockets and missile defense needs. Thus, the first products of its space programme were not Satellite Launch Vehicles (chsatellites, rather they were Ballistic Missiles like the Dongfeng-1 (DF-1), -2, -3, -4 and -5. Of these, the DF-4 and DF-5 became SLVs like the Changzheng-1 (CZ-1) and CZ-2 respectively.[1] Thus, PRC's first satellite, Dongfanghong I (The East Is Red I), was launched only one and a half decades later in 1970, making China the fifth space-faring nation. The manned space program began in 1968, and China became the third country to put a human in space in 2003.." (Source: Wikipedia.org)
