We are more focused on the space station now. There was a rumor that NASA had planned on going back to the moon, but the shuttle isn't a moon capable vehicle. The costs to develop new technology to send men or women to the moon would be outrageous.

the trip to the moon was as much a polotical parlee as a science experiment.  We could strike fear into the USSR if we could have an off planet capablity (IE missiles from the moon)

[Krandall]

Moon bases are way cooler

[Flynbyu]

Strike fear with missiles from the moon?

Why do that when we can park a sub off their coast and light 'em up from there?
