A breakthrough in space exploration? Japan has sent the world’s first wooden satellite into orbit.
SpaceX has launched a tiny wooden probe called LignoSat, created by Japanese scientists, into space for the first time.
The LignoSat probe was launched to test the durability of wood in open space.
It is made from the durable Japanese honoki magnolia tree and is assembled without metal screws or glue.
According to Prof. Koji Murata, wood in space can be even more durable than on Earth.
After all, there is no oxygen and water in space, which can lead to its destruction.
The wooden satellite will not harm the environment: once back in the air, it will burn up completely and leave no space debris.
If the tests are successful, scientists plan to build wooden houses on the Moon and Mars in the next 50 years.
