      It’s possible. But it would be quite difficult – it doesn’t have enough oxygen, or food or water, so we’d need to take all of that with us. People have talked about changing the atmosphere but I don’t think anyone’s too sure it would work.

      I think Earth is a much nicer place to live.

      Maybe one day. We need to get there first and have a look around I think. Always best to check a place out before you move in.

      If we get off planet earth, mars or the moon are the closest places, so they’d probably be our first places to settle. We’d probably have to live in bubbles of air though, and if we found water there that would be ideal.
