first, mars does not have the magnetic field and gravity necessary to hold in an atmosphere. we could build shelters to hold humans but they would never be outside playing ball in the sunlight without protection.
as for the moon, there are many things a moon base could do for us including growing crops, harvesting solar energy, a place for prisoners, observatories etc.
also, keep in mind that everytime we develope technology for space travel it helps us out on earth. so by trying to walk on the moon again or sending people to mars we may just accidentally cure cancer or come up with a viable clean energy source


Are you saying it is useless to go to Mars? You are actually wrong Mars has an atmosphere just not breathable to us humans currently. You could also grow crops, harvest solar energy, hold prosoners, and make observatories on Mars as well. The moon has no atmosphere, and can never have one, due to it's small mass it doesn't have a strong enough gravitational field to hold an atmoshpere.
