True and the sad fact is we are not spending nearly enough.
The moon is severely undervalued if we think this is a waste of money - The moon has been said to help the stability of the Earth and keep it on its axis - without it the Earth wouldn't be able to sustain life as we know now and would spin around in all sorts of directions and I bet Nasa are also eager to look at what the other side of the moon is hiding seeing as they haven't seen it for quite some time now.
