Introduction
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the interest and investment in space exploration. As humans continue to push the boundaries of space travel, the need for lightweight materials that can withstand the harsh conditions of outer space has become increasingly important. Lightweight materials play a crucial role in space exploration as they can reduce the overall weight of spacecraft, which in turn can lower the cost of launching payloads into space and increase the efficiency of space missions.
This thesis will focus on the use of lightweight materials for space exploration and will explore the various types of materials that are currently being used in the aerospace industry. The research will also investigate the potential benefits and challenges associated with the use of lightweight materials in space exploration.
