Came to say this. The Apollo missions are forks of ICBMs.
We should instead show a picture of Robert Goddard next to his 1926 LO2-fuel rocket and then man on the moon and say "These two images are only 43 years apart." It's objectively more impressive because within an average lifetime at any point in history, we went from rockets as fireworks and weapons to landing on the moon. But it also requires people to know who Robert Goddard is and what he invented.
I'm hoping this future post of yours makes it to the front page so many can learn.
