Preservation of the Lucky Dragon No. 5 and construction of an exhibition hall
After the Lucky Dragon No. 5 was exposed to a Bikini hydrogen bomb test, it was tested for residual radiation at Fisheries University in Shinagawa. It was then remodeled into a training boat for that university. Ten years later, it had deteriorated to the point that it was given over to a scrap company, which abandoned the hulk on a corner of Yume-no-shima, an island then used as a dump. When a media organization reported that the Hayabusa Maru was actually the Lucky Dragon No. 5, the residents of Koto Ward, where the island was located, began a preservation movement. In 1976, construction of the Tokyo Metropolitan Daigo Fukuryu Maru Exhibition Hall began on Yume-no-shima Island in Tokyo.		10/The Hayabusa Maru abandoned on Yume no Shima, the Fundraising Campaign, Construction of the Daigo Fukuryu Maru Exhibition Hall	11/the Fundraising Campaign
