One thing I usually highlight about the Moon Landing (1969) is that the delivered not just people on the moon, but it was broadcast live!

We can still appreciate that as a mind-blowing achievement! And it might put a damper on the enthusiasm for a delayed video of a wet drone.. :)

Up until recently there were more people on moon than single handed non stop circumnavigations

I find this hard to believe. There have must've been 1-2 dozen solo circumnavigators in the 70's already.. how many people have been on the moon? quick search Apparently only 12 people have walked on the moon (24 total have "been to the moon")and I'd venture a guess that we hit that amount of solo circumnavigators in the 60's already thanks to the OSTAR.
