Apollo 11 or Sputnik 1 - which was more significant?

[mr3000]

I’m honestly not sure which one to pick, Sputnik will always be the beginning, yet Apollo 11 was clearly more impressive. I wasn’t old enough to witness either of them (born in 1995.) perhaps someone old enough to remember them both can give the best answer

"more significant"? "pick one"? "more impressive"? "best answer?"
