Question

The body of the Mars Orbiter needs to be made up of a special material in order to avoid rusting of the parts and overheating of the surface. Explain your choice of materials that scientists used so that a disaster could be avoided.

Answer 1

The special material is

       Aluminum and Composite Fibre Reinforced Plastic -  or,

            Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer -  CFPR

  CFPR

         -  has a very high strength for a given weight

         - reflects well heat

        -  does not rust

        - durable

 

It may not be the best.  But it is practically the most fitting substance that can be used to optimized on multiple criteria.
