Not familiar with the properties of aluminum? Aluminum is very light because of its low density. Aluminum is a material once used in space exploration in rockets, satellites, and space stations because it is very light and durable. It is much lighter than silver or copper and will not tarnish/oxidize over time. Did you know that Aluminum was once one of the most expensive metals on earth (1800s)? The price was so high because no one had figured out a good way to extract it from the earth.
