24. Agreed. There will be time to return to the Moon later.
No doubt we will when we can afford it.

A moon base will be extremely important in the next 50 years, but going there now just to prove we can is pretty much pointless. We still need to solve thousands of big problems before a moon base will be feasible, radiation being the top issue IMO. There's no point living on the moon if the inhabitants all quickly die from cancer.
