You would need...
  1. Greenhouses for oxygen
  2. Airlocks
  3. Housing
  4. Entertainment
  5. A way of providing food
  6. Space suits
Among others. It would be expensive but it would mark a point in human history; when humans settled down on an extraterrestrial moon/rock.
One small step for man, one giant leap for moon aliens. Big Grin

We can look towards the I.S.S (International Space Station) for experience on living in space. Maybe that can give some ideas on how we can properly live on a moon colony.

It would be nice if the world had another manned moon mission. With the technology we have we could probably set up a colony on the moon! Which would probably take a billion dollars... but in the governments and really rich mans world: A million dollars to them is like 25 cents.

I heard, a few years back, they wanted a 'Moon Base' as a staging area for a trip to Mars. This still sounds like a grand idea.

I tried looking online for images for a Moon Colony and found this http://th01.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2011/108/3/a/my_beach_in_a_moon_crater_by_arthurblue-d3eaw66.jpg

Is this something you had envisioned?

Not exactly, I don't really envision us living under giant domes. Maybe smaller ones for when we have greenhouses to recycle oxygen.
