The process by which humans selectively breed, genetically modify, or behaviorally train extraterrestrial organisms for utility, companionship, or agricultural purposes. It's the extension of the ancient human-animal partnership to the stars. This could involve tailoring a fast-breeding, methane-processing Martian "moss" to produce breathable air, or taming a hexapedal, docile grazer to serve as a beast of burden on a low-gravity world. It's making the alien useful and familiar, blurring the line between foreign life and a resource.
Example: In the Frontiers Saga, settlers on a new planet selectively breeding the native "Grunts" for their nutritious milk and sturdy hides is Alien Domestication. On a microbial level, it could involve culturing extremophile bacteria from Europa to use as living filters in a water reclamation plant.

They are the first homes on the frontier, combining life support, radiation shielding, psychological space, and structural integrity against alien weather (or vacuum). Advanced versions may have transparent panels for external viewing, multi-layered membranes for redundancy, and integrated systems for water recycling, air revitalization, and food production. A hab-dome is more than a tent; it's a fragile bubble of Earth normalcy in a hostile cosmos.
Example: In countless sci-fi visions, from Total Recall to The Martian, the initial colony bases are clusters of interconnected Hab-Domes. A real-world prototype might be NASA's proposed inflatable habitats for the Moon, which expand to create large living volumes from a small, launchable package, shielded with a layer of regolith for protection.
