She wrote all this code by hand to take humanity to the Moon

Margaret Hamilton, NASA's lead developer for Apollo program, stands next to all the code she wrote by hand that took humanity to the moon in 1969
You're kind of missing the point. It costs us about 4 BILLION dollars to send a person to the moon. What do you expect to find on the moon worth that? we know what the moon looks like, if we want imagery, we can send satellites for a fraction of that price, and danger. We have rocks, we have materials from the moon that are still working on.
Do you think there's a lost city? A secret civilization? A massive moon base the Nazis put there?
It's a hunk of DEAD rock. And the idea of "lunar mining" and all sorts of sci-fi stuff probably is unfeasible at those prices.
