The Wang Daheng Memorial Park is located in Changchun Jingyuetan National Forest Park,covering an area of 8000 square meters.The park is divided into two landscape levels,with a 3.6-meter-high bronze statue of Wang Daheng standing in the core area,backed by the Changchun Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics remote sensing station it created,overlooking the water surface of Jingyuetan from west to east;The ecological leisure area preserves the original pine forest vegetation and sets up a circular viewing stone walkway.The overall landscape design integrates Wang Daheng's scientific research achievements with the natural environment.

　　In July 2011,Mr.Daheng passed away peacefully in Beijing at the age of 96.According to his wish,a portion of his ashes were left in the land he had fought for and loved deeply.The Wang Daheng Memorial Park was initiated and supported by the Changchun Municipal Party Committee and Government,and was organized and constructed by the Changchun Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics.On September 11,2012,the opening ceremony of the memorial park and the unveiling ceremony of the bronze statue were held in the park.The construction of Wang Daheng Memorial Park is not only to express the nostalgia and respect for Mr.Daheng,to commemorate his important contributions to the development and progress of Changchun,but also to thank Mr.Daheng as the founder and first director of Changchun Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics for laying a solid foundation for the development of Changchun Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics.At the same time,Mr.Daheng's profound knowledge,profound thinking,outstanding insights,broad mindedness,pragmatic spirit,elegant and humble style,rigorous and pragmatic scientific spirit,and far sighted strategic thinking deeply influence every Changguang person.

　　Mr.Wang Daheng was born on February 26,1915,with ancestral roots in Wu County,Jiangsu Province.Graduated from Tsinghua University in 1936.In 1938,he was admitted as a"Geng Fund"international student and studied at Imperial College London in the UK,obtaining a master's degree.From 1941 to 1942,he pursued a doctoral degree in Glass Manufacturing Technology at Sheffield University in the United Kingdom.From 1942 to 1948,he worked as an optical glass researcher at Changsi Glass Company in the UK.Returned to China in 1948.From 1949 to 1951,he served as a professor and head of the Department of Applied Physics at Dalian University.He worked in the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1951,engaged in optical instruments and engineering research in Changchun from 1952-1983,and was transferred to the Department of Technology and Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1983.

　　Mr.Daheng is the winner of the"Two Bombs and One Star Meritorious Medal",an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering,an academician of the International Academy of Astronautics,an important academic founder,pioneer and organizational leader of China's modern optical engineering,and an outstanding strategic scientist and educator.

　　Mr.Daheng has made outstanding contributions in the research and organizational leadership of optics and optical engineering.As the founder and founder of Chunguang Institute,President of Chinese Science,he presided over the 150 Project and led the development of China's first large film theodolite in shooting range;Hosted the 718 project and led the development of China's first laser infrared TV movie theodolite and ship deformation measurement system,making outstanding contributions to the development of China's cutting-edge weapons.Has won the National Science and Technology Progress Special Award and ranked first;He Liang He Li Foundation Science and Technology Achievement Award,National"Two Bombs and One Satellite Merit Medal";National"863 Program"special contribution exemplary individual title.

　　Mr.Daheng is far sighted and insightful,considering from a strategic perspective and collaborating with other scientists to propose multiple major suggestions for the development of national science and technology.The"863"plan proposed by him as one of the initiators,including the construction of large aircraft,has played a positive role in national scientific and technological decision-making and has had a profound impact.

　　Mr.Daheng is also an outstanding educator,and he is one of the founders of China's optics,instrumentation,and metrology education.At the research institute he led and the university he founded,a large number of scientific and technological talents were trained for the country.

　　Mr.Daheng's academic ideas and contributions to the country's optics,instrumentation,and metrology science have left an eternal brilliance for the world and will forever be recorded in history.

　　History is eternal through remembrance,and spirit is immortal through inheritance.We believe that we will continue Mr.Daheng's patriotism and patriotic aspirations,continue to struggle and forge ahead,and let the"light of China"shine even brighter in the new era!
