nothing to do there, we got our samples, also, robots are easier to send up there.
Dont forget how expensive it is to go to the moon.

No reason to for the present. We know what it's made of, we know it can't support life. We'll be back someday but it won't be in the near future.

There is not much there to attract anyone, just rock and extreme temperatures. Not too many visit the middle of the Sahara, and things there are much more hospitable.
And nobody will pay.

No reason to go again. They got rock samples and information, they left triangular reflectors. People almost died going there. People did die preparing (Apollo 1) NASA was very lucky to get the astronauts back alive
Besides it costs a fortune. Once the wars stop, NASA might go there to try out Mars habitats

Interest in exploring the Moon faded considerably, and only a few dedicated enthusiasts supported a return. However, evidence of Lunar ice at the poles gathered by NASA's Clementine (1994) and Lunar Prospector (1998) missions rekindled some discussion, as did the potential growth of a Chinese space program that contemplated its own mission to the Moon. As of 2006, Japan planned to have a Moon base in 2030. and as of 2007, Russia planned to have a Moon base in 2027–32. In addition, the European Space Agency has a plan for a permanently manned Lunar base by 2025.
