Some of the lunar samples collected by Chang'e-5 will be stored in Shaoshan, the birthplace of Chairman Mao, as an honor to him

[GS Zhou]

The deputy director of China’s lunar exploration program, Wu Yanhua, said during a press conference on Dec. 17 that most of the samples collected by the Chang’e 5 mission will be stored at the National Astronomical Observatories in Beijing. He added that an unspecified amount would be sent to Shaoshan, the birthplace of Mao Zedong in the central Hunan province, as a “remote disaster backup site”.

The decision was apparently motivated by a line in one of Chairman Mao's poems: “clasp the moon in the Ninth Heaven / 可上九天揽月.”

吴艳华也表示，珍贵的月壤，要进行异地灾备。“国家航天局经组织研究，除了位于北京的中科院国家天文台作为主要存储地点以外，还将在湖南韶山毛主席的故乡进行异地灾备，以告慰毛主席，我们尊敬的伟人，他提出‘可上九天揽月’这个夙愿实现了”，吴艳华说。

I think the rocks collected by our manned submersible on the floor of the Mariana Trench last month (Nov. 2020) should also be stored in Shaoshan; Chairman Mao, in the same poem, also said: seize turtles deep down in the Five Seas / 可下五洋捉鳖

Chairman Mao guided the build-up of new China, formed its sovereignty DNA, visioned the establishment of early critical heavy industries, liberated the poor and pioneered a literacy revolution. Most important, he made sure that China would acquire nuclear weapons tech as early as possible.

This is definitely an appropriate tribute.

Perhaps placing a few samples from both the Moon and the Ocean’s depth at the Mausoleum of Chairman Mao with words from his poems on a nearby Placard would help tie it all together in visitors minds.

In the US, former Presidents have a Presidential library of their documents and artifacts from their administration. Perhaps building something similar for the people for each of the past Chinese leaders will showcase the progress made.

Mao cement Chinese believe that they can go thru any obstacle and accomplish anything unlike nationalist Chiang who always believe Chinese need western assistance to achieve something.

I am not a big fan of Mao great leap but one cannot deny his determination and contribution to united China.

As Deng said, he is 30 % bad but 70% good. Therefore, he is still respected. He did policy mistakes but he solidified CHINA into a unified power.

I respect Mao as well 70% right 30 % error

Everyone is trapped in history background. We can tell what people did is good or bad because we are out of the fog they were in. Mao was a staunch communist. He made policies according to communism theories. He didn't betray his faith in the first place.

Now we know communism has flaws. But this is hindsight. Back to Mao age. Soviet Union was an encouraging example for all developing countries. Even western countries were not so confident with their political system when seeing all achievements of Soviet Union. It's very natual for Mao to choose Stalin's path considering the history background he was in.

Chairman Mao makes China a united country with no warlords nor foreign military forces;

Chairman Mao set up CCP and a Meritocracy system that can unite and lead the Chinese people to work hard for a shared target;

Chairman Mao set up PLA and make it a trustable and beloved military force to the Chinese people, no matter in the war time, or natural disaster rescue in peaceful time;

Chairman Mao set up China's initial heavy manufacturing industry, small and fragile, if you evaluate it with the standards today, but it proves to be critical to China's success in manufacturing sector in the later decades.

Chairman Mao destroys all the discriminations against women and pool people, and makes education accessible to kids from even the poorest family.

That's why the young generation in China today have a high respect to Chairman Mao.

China in 1945

•Russia took Mongolia and a piece of Xinjiang
•Japan occupied three northern provinces
•Britain colonized Hong Kong
•Portugal colonized Macau
•France colonized pieces of Shanghai
•Germany colonized Qingdao
•The U.S. forced economic concessions
•Country at Civil War

•China, of 400 million people (1945):

–50 million drug addicts (British opium),
–80% of population could not read or write
–Life expectancy is 35 years
–The Japanese had killed 20 million
–70% of peasant's produce went to land rent 地租
–Desperate mothers sold their children for food and poor people sold themselves
–US Ambassador John Leighton Stuart: (1946-1949)
•during his second year in China, 10 million people starved to death in three provinces
•China is agrarian, backward, feudalistic, illiterate

China in 1974

•The invaders, bandits and warlords are gone
•Population doubled
•Literacy was 84% of population
•Wealth disparity disappeared
•Electricity reached poor areas
•Infrastructure restored
•Economy grew 500%
•Drug addiction eradicated
•Women liberated
•Girls educated
•Crime was rare
•Everyone had food and shelter
•Life expectancy was sixty-seven (67)

•In 1973 China was:

–manufacturing jet planes
–heavy tractors
–ocean-going ships
--nuclear weapons and long-range ballistic missiles

Between 1945-75, under Mao Zedong:

•Doubled China’s population from 542 million to 956 million
•Doubled life expectancy
•Doubled caloric intake
•Quintupled GDP
•Quadrupled literacy
•Increased grain production 300%
•Increased gross industrial output forty-fold
Increased heavy industry ninety-fold

This is why Mao Zedong is immortal in terms of his ideas.

Mao insisted on nuclear and SSBN program at expense of foreign reserve. It ensure China long term stability from foreign intervention and save China from 1969 Sino Soviet border clash. China space program is also a result of Mao insistence on getting one. Mao is the real father of Chinese space program.

Wu Yanhua, deputy head of the China National Space Administration, told reporters on Thursday that "precious moon samples collected by Chang'e-5 will also be stored in Chairman Mao's hometown ofShaoshan, Hunan Province."

Mao once wrote a poem that read: "We can clasp the moon in the ninth heaven. And seize turtles deep down in the five seas. We'll return amid triumphant song and laughter." Wu explained that the lunar materials will be sent to Shaoshan "to make Chairman Mao's wishes come true."
