What are moon stations made out of?

There are no stations on the moon. However, if we were to build one there, then the materials would have to be strong and lightweight, possibly alloys of aluminum and/or titanium. They would need to be strong to withstand impacts of micrometeors without being punctured, and light enough to transport to the moon. You can read about the Lunar Excursion Module or NASA's space shuttles and see what their structures were made of... similar materials might be used as the space shuttles face similar requirements for travelling in space.
