Interesting destinations for future manned missions to the Moon

[CaptRobau]

What would be some interesting areas for future lunar astronauts/cosmonauts/taikonauts to visit?

Personally I would like to see the North or South pole looked at next.

The south pole may even have more ice than the north, specifically Shackleton crater.

Poles, obviously.

SMART-1 crash side or in general - most recent craters.

Down, time to go space spelunking!

Why, North-east Tycho of course!

2001 theme plays...

In all seriousness, the poles are a good place to start. Although, I think some of the planned Apollo sites that never got visited should also be on the list.

Lets see, *blows dust off Apollo mission command booklet*.

Apollo 18- Schröter's Valley

Apollo 19- Hyginus rille

Apollo 20-Copernicus crater

Hmm seem to be interesting locations

This. Anything else is secondary IMO. It's time to dip our feet in the 'water.'

Kinda right there. Incidentally, this crater was formed on the day I was born.

By chance, do you own any clothing with a big "S" on it?
