It is a long time. Frankly there no real reason we shouldnt be able to do it by 2010, or 2015 atleast. Then i think you have to consider, why. What are we going to learn by going back to the moon in preperation for mars? You figure 15 years to go to a place we've already been what 30 some odd years ago? How long to get to mars, 50, 60, 80 years? It really seems a bit more time and effort should be put into this. Theres simply so much to learn from striving for, and acheiving it. Then once its done with, there will still be more evolution of the tech, pushing it even further and truly speeding up technological development in most sectors.
