Not to dismiss the guts of these explorers, but we have not been to the Moon in 50 years because it costs a fortune to get to when it's not much more than a floating rock (I'm being hyperbolic but the point is that there is no economic incentive to offset the cost). If we could get to it cheaply, but with a high risk of death, I'm sure many would be doing it right now.
