I would've thought USSR would've done it by the 70s if not before Amerika, but it's been 60 years since and no one has done it so far. In fact, it's likely it'll be Amerikans who're back on the moon again before anyone else. WTF is going on here?

    This can just as easily be done by non-crewed missions (which there have been a couple in the last 20 years)

    mostly from the CNSA (we totally need their logo for an emoji)

      Yeah, as far as other projects there are many countries who have been doing tech demos or orbital projects like India, Japan, UAE, S Korea, Italy, etc. Cool stuff is still happening, but planting another flag on the moon isn't really that high on anyone's list of priorities.
