Why do scientists continue to study the Moon long after the Apollo program ended and list some of the types of data that have been collected.?

One type of data currently collected as a direct result of the Apollo Program is the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment. The ongoing Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment measures the distance between the Earth and the Moon using laser ranging. Lasers on Earth are aimed at retroreflectors planted on the Moon during the Apollo program (11, 14, and 15), and the time for the reflected light to return is determined.
