I have to admit I know of no industrial or household applications of yttrium (other than a small amount used in spark plugs, see below). I'm sure there are some, and someone is probably going to enlighten me, but for the time being, my mind is a blank on yttrium.
It's a nice enough metal, but not distinguished in any particular way from others around it that are cheaper, stronger, and more stable in air. I don't think there would be any reason to make a missile part out of yttrium, even if you didn't care about the cost (and we all know the people who make missile parts don't care about the cost).

Healers Fluorite with Rare Earth Element Yttrium.
I admit, I have absolutely no idea if this stone actually has any yttrium in it: See below for a sample that is actual pure yttrium. Honestly, just between you and me, I really just bought this one for the description the seller gave it on eBay: That alone is worth twice the price I paid! And here it is, verbatim from the auction:
Healers Fluorite with Rare Earth Element Yttrium.
Tremendous Healing Energy!
This Beautiful Little Stone Being is a Light Lavender/Peach, looking Peach as the Light Shines through her. Lavender in the Shadow!
Fluorite Stimulates Third Eye Awakening and Understanding! It helps us to See Past the Veils of Illusion to the Beauty and Truth of Awareness. Fluorite Provides Integration of Dark and Light Clearing Us of Heavy Out Dated Energy.
This Combination Stone Being offers Tremendous Healing Energy to her Keeper. She Amplifies our Aura and Helps us Channel Higher Frequency Energy. She helps us Reach the Deep Peace Within enabling us Access to the Higher Knowledge which is Our True Birth Right.
Very Valuable for Teachers and Healers.
Upon first holding these Stone Beings I was amazed at the Hot Flow of Energy they Generate. A Pure Loving Embrace.
The Wonderful Folks who supply these, and myself, feel these Stone Beings need to Get Out in the World. Therefore, starting bid on these will be my cost. Blessings!
From Mexico or Nevada.
Size is 1 7/8" x 3/4" x 1 1/8"
We are Divine Intelligence. Love. It is All There Is. Think of Yourself as a Tiny Cell of Divine Light and Wisdom. ALL BEINGS are Part of The Great Whole. We Carry the Same Cellular Light Memories as The Stone People. WE have Simply (SIMPLY!?!) Forgotten how to Remember! The Stone People are not Complicated with Human Perception. They Simply Are. The Stone People Bring these Memories to Consciousness as We are Ready to Receive them. We Are the Hands of Spirit, the Stone People are Waiting for Us.
They are Here to Help Us do the Work of Spirit.
We Love the Stone People. They are as Individual as you and I. Yet, we are all One. I am finding, as a I look/feel each One, such a Great Love and Open Heart. Each Being, overwhelms me with Its Unique Beauty and Wisdom. I wish you could feel them at that moment as I do. I do not mean that in a Sense that you can't. What I mean is: You know how you feel when your Heart is Wide Open and you want to Share that Energy of Beauty and Joy Everywhere? We Can, you know! According to Theory it Takes 20% of the Human Population to Make the Shift!
Anyway... It is difficult to share what each Being Says. It is only what I hear from the Stone Being and What you Hear may be quite Different. I don't want to quote endless pages from books. I use as a resource and recommend Melody's "Love is in the Earth" for further learning. Really, what I recommend is Feeling their Unique Wisdom, Beauty and Endless Gifts! The Intricacies of Each Being is Quite Amazingly Overwhelming!
They come to Us for a Reason.
To Our Light Within. May Its Brilliance Shine!
Wow.
For what it's worth, analysis by x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy at the Center for Microanalysis of Materials, University of Illinois (partially supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under grant DEFG02-91-ER45439) indicates no measurable quantity of yttrium. A tiny bit of strontium, yes, but no yttrium.

Good-sized Lump.
This irregular, obviously mechanically formed lump, is from the irrepressible David Franco, supplier of only the highest purity elements, financed by the ever-generous Ed Pegg. It has conveniently rescued me from a very questionable representation of yttrium.

Sample from the Everest Element Set.
Up until the early 1990's a company in Russia sold a periodic table collection with element samples. At some point their American distributor sold off the remaining stock to a man who is now selling them on eBay. The samples (excepted gasses) weight about 0.25 grams each, and the whole set comes in a very nice wooden box with a printed periodic table in the lid.
To learn more about the set you can visit my page about element collecting for a general description and information about how to buy one, or you can see photographs of all the samples from the set displayed on my website in a periodic table layout or with bigger pictures in numerical order.
