Ultralight materials are solids with a density of less than 10 mg/cm 3, including silica aerogels, carbon nanotube aerogels, aerographite, metallic foams, polymeric foams, and metallic microlattices. The density of air is about 1.275 mg/cm 3 , which means that the air in the pores contributes significantly to the density of these materials in ...
A metallic microlattice is a synthetic porous metallic material consisting of an ultra-light metal foam. With a density as low as 0.99 mg/cm 3 (0.00561 lb/ft 3 ), it is one of the lightest structural materials known to science. [ 1 ]

It is the first production car launched into space. The car, mounted on the rocket's second stage, was launched on an escape trajectory and entered an elliptical heliocentric orbit crossing the orbit of Mars. [6] The orbit reaches a maximum distance from the Sun at aphelion of 1.66 astronomical units (au). [4]
