  I presume you mean what materials do you need to make the outside of a spacecraft from? A lot of it is made of aluminium and the gold foil is is called MLI (multilayered Insulation) this is made of some special foils mainly of a material called Kapton. The MLI stops the spacecraft from getting too hot or too cold and the Aluminium holds it together in the rocket launch
