Origami has a number of important applications. It could be used to make large space structures that actually fit into a rocket, stronger composites, artery stents, and many more things.

The space structure part has important scientific and defense applications.

One cool scientific application would be for something called a starshade. Essentially if we put a big piece of mylar in space, we can use it to block out a star's light and directly image any exoplanets said star might have using existing telescope technology.
