That's easy

the 60's was due to race between USA and Russia
And JFK famous speak about putting a man on the moon before the end of the decade

Now there's no race and a trip to Mars is far more.... than a trip to the moon is.

They have to establish some kind of base on Mars before the astronaut arrive a.s.o

That what I think.
