Only 12 people have been there and only one of them was a scientist. Only 6 landing sites all on the near side and all of them in terrain that was easy to land in. Only 3 of those missions were able to go a decent distance from the landing site due to the moon rovers. We know a lot more about the moon then we otherwise would from the moon missions. But we haven't really explored it. We don't know whether there really is water at the poles (possible but it actually seems a little unlikely at the moment) as well as that the moon contains quite a bit of He3. Trace amounts would be accurate but given the energy density the moon could allow us to replace fossil fuels and nuclear fission for power generation. More people need to go to the moon. Although this time it should be scientists going instead of test pilots.
