I believe in the book i mentioned he states that astroids are a better option then the moon.

I believe he hoped that he would go to mars first, then astroids from there, then to the moon (much easier with all the tech that would have been developed).

The tech argument is also important. He theorizes that the harder the mission the larger the leaps in technology. Those technologies could then be adapted for the easier mission of getting to the moon.
