All of the public money spent on going to the moon is really just a way to funnel $$ to a few sub-contractors the actual science value of going BACK to the moon is pretty low.
It takes such a huge amount of people time, effort, resources AND has an environmental impact to launch a payload into space, we should be expending these resources to help solve our societal/environmental issues, not for "showboat science".
