It is a bit different sending a paper rocket into the air and successfully bringing people to the moon.

I don't think anyone is arguing that rockets started development 66 years before humans reaching the moon. It is just that it is a rapid development from barely being possible for humans to fly to suddenly (66 years later) bouncing around on the moon.
