After setting up a sustained colony, we could mine the resources to use as chemical rocket fuel. Create a refining complex for metals. We could create manufacturing facilities to transfer some of our launch needs from Earth to the moon. We could create launch sites, since it would be easier to reach escape velocity from the surface of the moon than the surface of Earth. Many, many things. Far more than I can think of with my limited imagination.

What talents are needed to colonize a planet?

The talents needed to colonize a planet would depend upon which planet you are colonizing. Some are harder to colonize than others, and in any event, this is a very hypothetical question since we are not remotely capable of colonizing any planet at this time in human history. Mars would be the best bet, but we really are not prepared to make the kind of investment that would be needed to colonize Mars (although I understand that some people want to fund a trip to Mars as a reality TV program, something like Survivor Mars - it is doubtful that this could result in a self-sustaining colony, but who know). So let's say you are going to colonize Mars. This is not easy to do since Mars does not have a breathable atmosphere. It would require massive technological support to colonize a planet like Mars, and that in turn means that the talents you need lie in the field of science and technology. You have to be able to build and maintain very sophisticated machinery, and if you don't do that, you will run out of air and will die. It's a serious business.

Why people are going to planet mars?

So far, no human beings have ever been any further away than the Moon - and not even that far for the last 40 years. Eventually people will go to Mars, for the excitement and adventure, and to get away from the hordes of people here on Earth. We humans are explorers; we always want to go higher, faster, farther. We wouldn't be human otherwise.
