Japanese scientists have developed the world's first wooden satellite, named LignoSat, which is made of magnolia wood. The unusual spacecraft is expected to launch on a US rocket as early as this summer. Previous successful experiments with the material were conducted in 2022. The magnolia wood was chosen for its stability and resistance to cracking. There seems to be consistency among the articles regarding the composition, size, and upcoming launch of the LignoSat probe.
