So again, based on my understanding, nope, we could not do it again today. 10 years from today perhaps.
Of course we couldn't get back to the moon overnight. But if we placed the same priority on getting to the moon today, as we did in the 1960s, we could get there in a few years. For example, it would't take a decade to simply re-create Saturn V.
