| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a Long March carrier rocket launching skyward from a launch pad, rendered in fine relief against a stylized backdrop of the Earth's curved surface with a partial map of China visible below. A satellite and a space capsule float in the upper field to either side of the rocket, emphasizing China's achievements in space exploration. The denomination 10元 appears to the right of the rocket in the field. The commemorative inscription 中国航天工业创建四十周年纪念 (Commemorating the 40th Anniversary of the Founding of China's Aerospace Industry) arcs along the upper rim in Chinese characters. |
