The Moon Landing / Space Race was all about the pomp and drama - it was a race. I'd say the Berlin Wall had that level of impact.
The EU? No one really noticed that - and their still arguing over it.
I suppose it depends on how we define a "defining moment".
- BrentRitterbeck 17y agoI will give you that, but think about what it took to get man to the moon. You can say without a doubt that nothing like that had ever been done before. That's why I say the EU was almost there, but it doesn't meet the "never been done before" level. EDIT: Before man on the moon, I think the event that previously rose to that same level was the first atomic bomb. Before that, Kitty Hawk. That's the level of significance that I am talking about, the moments that make you go "holy crap!" Now that I think about it, the EU is not even close. Sputnik doesn't even rise to the level of significance I am looking for, though it certainly comes close.
