Recycling powerplant steam instead of wasting it.

I am confused. I don't understand why steam power plants like these must let all that steam go into the atmosphere instead of capturing, condensing, and indefinitely recycling it.













It would seem to make sense to me that from a water standpoint, in conditions such as we are in with water so scarce that you would want to send the water through the steam turbine and then condense and repeat the process all over again.
