In 2001, the head of CNSA was reported by the official Xinhua News Agency as saying that, first, the nation would like to build a series of robot probes to be launched on Long March rockets to land and explore the lunar surface.
The probe would fly around the Moon for at least a year, sending back detailed maps of the surface as well as data on the Moon's radiation levels and the resources in the polar regions that could be used by astronauts who might land there in the future.

 Review | Promised the Moon by Stephanie Nolen
Nolen approaches Promised the Moon through official and unofficial sources as well as the personal stories of the 13 women who didn't make it to space.
But, above all else, the story of these extraordinary women, who ignored traditional roles, defied convention and broke through barriers is a tale of the painful, destructive experience of being caught on the cusp of social change.
In Promised the Moon: The Untold Story of the First Women in the Space Race Stephanie Nolen tells that story in its entirety for the first time.

The Bush plan earmarks $1.3 billion for unmanned missions to the moon over the next five years, including a lunar orbiter to be launched by 2008 and a robotic lander scheduled for 2009.
The orbiters sent to the Red Planet in the past few years have thoroughly mapped its topography and mineralogy; in comparison, the moon maps obtained by Lunar Prospector and the earlier Clementine spacecraft are fuzzy and incomplete.
The moon mission, though, is more likely to be focused on applications that will aid human spaceflight— such as finding ice and learning how to extract it for life support or to produce rocket fuel by breaking the water into liquid hydrogen and oxygen.

As exciting and revolutionary as a trip to the moon may sound, such an extravagance does not come without sacrifice, expense and risk.

Nothing better proves to me how pathetic our ability to predict the future is -- take my previous assessment of Kerry's presidential chances for an example -- than the fact that at 59 I still find myself subway, bus, or car-bound in the big city.
Unfortunately, when we finally reached the moon in 1969, the Vietnam War was growing ever hotter, the first pictures back looked like they were taken from inside a washing machine, and the guys bouncing around up there were about as heavily scripted for banality as the automatons in Kubrick's already released 2001: A Space Odyssey.
But whether mining the moon for a helium isotope is pure fantasy or not (Alien without the Alien, just the big, dull cargo ships plowing through space), the militarization of space isn't and our militarization of Earth is already a fact -- with, naturally, the same small cast of characters pulling more than their weight.

The primary scientific importance of the Moon arises from its extremely ancient surface, which preserves a record of the early evolution of a terrestrial planet, and of the near-Earth cosmic environment in the first billion years or so of solar system history.
However, the strong scientific arguments for renewed human exploration of the Moon have been reviewed extensively elsewhere, so I concentrate here on the scientific case for the human exploration of Mars, and explain how this might be linked to an earlier phase of activity of the Moon.
Given that the Moon will be easier and cheaper to get to, my own view is that ESA would be better concentrating its human spaceflight activities over the next 25 years on the Moon rather than on Mars, presumably as a partner in an international programme arising from the renewed US focus on lunar exploration.
