"Is it true that they are going to build a city on a planet to see if people could live in outerspace?"

Answer from "stargirl", an Astronomer:
People are living for short periods on the International Space Station right now. There are no real concrete plans to extend beyond that at this time. Some people talk about setting up Moon settlements, which I'd be all for, as long as I had an internet connection and access to new movies while I was there!
