And here it is. That Kyoto University-designed wooden satellite.

The Lignosat Probe, taking lovely inlaid Magnolia-wood cabinet-making to the cosmos.

What a brilliant idea.

Japan has launched the first wooden satellite into orbit.

Up in orbit there’s no moisture, oxygen or microbes to degrade the wood, so it’s as long-lasting as metal, & it disintegrates far more cleanly on re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere.

They’re now planning sustainable forestry to source satellites.
