You were told the moon landing was about human progress and exploring frontiers. In reality it was just about beating the Russians in the cold war. Sorry.

  Can't it be all of the above?

    It's expensive, so you have to give reasons or spending the money. The money was spent because beating the Russians was deemed worth it. I guess it won't necessarily be spent for a handwavy "but it is progress", needs more realistic goals.
