People have dreamt about living on the Moon for a long time, and while it is possible, it is also costly. Wendover Productions made a video explaining exactly how much it would cost to live on the Moon.
To calculate the amount, they figured out things such as how much a rocket would cost to use per pound, the cost of landers, the cost of a lunar base, and greenhouses for food.The grand total for four astronauts to live on the Moon for one year comes out to $36,000,000,000.
