I believe this research into the use of wood is intended to help reduce space debris because a lot more of the satellite will burn up completely during reentry. Also, residues in the upper atmosphere from the burning of wood are much less harmful than things like aluminium oxide and other chemicals or fine particles left over from the burning & disintegration of dead satellites and other space junk. So if more wood and other readily combustible organic materials can be used in space hardware, it is probably a good thing.
Thank you, Sandra.
The wooden satellite was deployed by SSOD!

I'm curious how wooden satellites might impact the growing debris field in orbit around Earth.

calling it wooden is such a lie
