Abstract: Thirty years have passed since China started its satellite program. Due to differences in political environment, economic situation and social context, China's satellite policies were quite different from other countries'. This article examines why and how China's satellite technology was adopted, developed and applied. Emphasis is placed on the evolution of China's satellite policies, and historical and socio-contextual interpretations are provided to trace the factors that caused changes in these policies. In addition, both the advantages and disadvantages resulting from these policies for different periods are discussed.
