This paper efforts to review the potential uses of
Composite materials in Space industry. Composite materials have
revolutionized the space industry by virtue of their multifunctional, multi-directional and tailorable properties that can
sustain the extreme environment of outer space. Fiber Metal
Laminates (FMLs), Metal Matrix, Polymer Matrix and Ceramic
Matrix composites have proven effective in Satellites, Launch
Vehicles and Space Centers application due to their Light weight,
dimensional stability, high specific strength, thermal stability,
tribological properties and diverse material combinations. This
review emphasized the importance of FMLs, Carbon and epoxy
composites along with other material systems in the major
elements of a space program.
