Moon missions


The first mission to moon was on July 21, 1969 and the last one was on Dec 11, 1972. If such great feats were possible in the early 70's, why not now? The technology is far more advanced. Computers have become a lot smaller, computing power has grown exponentially, communication is much more efficient. Then why not?

(Update: I read somewhere that NASA is planning another mission Orion-15, by 2019. Hmmm.)
