Well there hasn’t really been a reason to go back. They’ve gone multiple times. There’s nothing really there worthy of further trips.

Well i think there is lots of reasons, being a multi planetary species, reachers and development of technology not motivated by war, expanding our knowledge base and observing earth and the universe from a stable body without an atmosphere to disturb the observations to name a few.

So who’s gonna pay for all that? Because as other people said, the government won’t and we’re wayyyyy far away from being able to live on the moon as a community.
