well this should help that...
Okay Klaus, I'll be your Huckleberry and take a guess here. Two possibilities come to mind based on what you have said so far. (1) It is an observation dome to protect and display something and (2) a hotel with a monorail.
The first suggests that this is the museum, perhaps adjacent to Lake Armstrong (referenced by Riker in First Contact) that houses what is left of the Eagle landing site (since the top half of the landing module separated and returned to the command module) from the Apollo 11 mission, thereby preserving and displaying the first steps man took on the moon.
The second, with its reference to a hotel and monorail suggests that this is Disneyland Luna (just like Disneyland Paris, Disneyland Tokyo, and Disneyland Hong Kong).
My bets are on the first; it just feels more in keeping with this month's theme. Although, the idea of what an amusement park (or planet, Risa excepted, of course) in the Star Trek universe is interesting.

^^your no-prize will be in the mail. (1) is correct.
Well thank you very much. I look forward to not receiving it!
This is really coming along nicely. Can't wait to see the rest of the model.
... a nice guess, though JTK guessed it above...
But I always assumed they salvaged the E-D's saucer so I'm not sure what would be left.
I wouldn't mind seeing a Disneyland Luna ... I would imagine it something like this:
Moon Rover Ride Narrator: No one really knows when, where, or how man landed on the moon...
Fry: I do!
Moon Rover Ride Narrator: ...but our Fungineers imagine it went sometihg like this.
[Animatronic whalers emerge from a lunar lander]
Animatronic Whalers: [singing] We're whalers on the moon.
Animatronic Gophers, Animatronic Gophers: We carry a harpoon.
Animatronic Whalers, Animatronic Gophers, Leela: But there are no whales, so we tell tall tales and sing a whaling tune.
Fry: That's not how it happened.
Leela: Oh, really? I don't see you with a Fungineering degree.
Looks good so far!
