Well aluminum is used as you probably know to build planes. It has a low density, it's melting point is about 660 degrees celsius and it's boiling point is 2467 degrees celsius. It's atomic number is 13 and it's Atomic Mass is around 27 g. It has a resistance to oxidation and is extracted from it's ore by electrolysis. This method is very expensive as it uses lots of electricity but is the best way to extract it. Aluminum is quite reactive which is why it uses electrolysis.
