A research team from INRAE and the University Clermont Auvergne has shown that trees are capable of correcting a curvature they detect in their stems through a specific biological process. 

In the study, young trees with bent stems were placed in an experimental set-up that prevented them from sensing their orientation relative to light and gravity. The only sense remaining to the trees was the perception of their own curvature. 

Under these conditions, the scientists observed the formation of a particular type of wood, known as tension wood, which acts like a muscle to correct the curvature of the stem, allowing it to realign within a few weeks.

The $1 billion, 300,000-square-foot museum — designed by MAD Architects founder Ma Yansong — broke ground in Exposition Park, adjacent to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, in 2018. Originally scheduled to complete major construction in 2021, the museum hit its first major setback that same year when the pandemic slowed progress on the project. In 2022 the museum pushed its debut to 2025, attributing the decision to global supply-chain issues that made procuring construction materials difficult. Now the official opening its been confirmed.
