Going to the moon to visit, we have done that. Going to stay makes the Space Station budget chicken feed. We do need national goals,a promote science, get inventing going better. The first step is to have Teachers beholden to knowledge not the NEA.

Lets work on some nearer goals, like fusion, better Atomic Power, deep space (bottom of the ocean) and the space elevator. I like the contest idea but it probably works for investments in the $20M or less, not $20B.
