Mars. So now you’re asking… but why the moon again?

Fair question. Because we forgot how to land on celestial bodies and must re-learn that skill. Yes really. You see… We can’t use any of the same systems or processes we used in the 1960s and nobody has done it with modern avionics or methods. We have to learn how to do it all over again, essentially from scratch.
