This application relates to a space vehicle element configured to be at least partially destroyed during re-entry of the space vehicle into the atmosphere. The space vehicle element comprises a heat generating part comprising a metallo-thermal composition for providing additional heat during re-entry of the space vehicle into the atmosphere by an exothermic reaction of the metallo-thermal composition, for expediting the destruction of the space vehicle element by the additional heat provided by the heat generating part. The heat generating part is at least partially integrated within the space vehicle element or at least partially surrounds a portion of the space vehicle element. The application further relates to a corresponding method of manufacturing a space vehicle element configured to be destroyed during re-entry of the space vehicle into the atmosphere.
