One hundred years ago, Scott reached the South Pole.

Fifty years later, the first geologist briefly walked on the moon.

Kevin Fong asks if why we might want to return to the lunar surface and what will get us.

He talks to that first lunar geologist of Apollo 17, Harrison Schmitt and Nasa's Chief Administrator Charles Bolden, among others.
