If you mean man-made satellites ... Traditionally the main structure has been made of aluminum, although many now are some sort of composite. Usually it's some sort of graphite fiber-polycyanate face sheet over aluminum honeycomb, though it varies a lot by manufacturer and application. Polycyanate is preferred to epoxies for the matrix because it doesn't shrink as much when it loses moisture. There's a lot of other stuff in there. Propellant tanks are usually titanium, while other propellant components like lines and engines are typically steel. Housings for electronics are usually aluminum.
