I think we learned it wasn't worth the expense of going there. The rush to the moon, was as much an off shoot of the arms race and cold war. We didn't want to let the Soviets set up a base there. Once we got there, we realized no one was setting a base there any time soon, and it became a footnote in space exploration. When and IF colonization becomes possible, then we would be back in a heartbeat.
