Question
Is there any possibilities to create earth environment on moon or any other planet?
Answer: Every planet is different, with its own unique history and surface environment. Trying to create an Earth-like environment on another planet is called terraforming, and you can look up other answers about terraforming using the search engine on this website. We don't know how to do this even for Mars, which is the most similar planet to Earth. Perhaps in the distant future we might be able to change Mars enough to grow some Earth-plants there, but it is hard for me to imagine ever creating a truly Earth-like environment with a breathable atmosphere, blue sky and rain.
