There's actually quite a few unanswered geological questions, now that we're pretty sure how the moon was formed.
And, as I've inferred, the moon's a great natural jump point to those "further out" destinations you speak of.
Less escape velocity needed = easier launches to wherever.
We're starting to build a launch-pad there in 2019, if all goes as planned.
