It is no doubt the human accomplishment of greatest magnitude, but "highest"?

The greatest human acheivement was the winning of World War II and subsequently the Cold War by the Allies. Without that there would be no science, or possibly life for that matter. The winning may have involved science, but it was done by the sweat and blood and drive of people, not tools, which is all that science is.

Even landing on the moon was done by the brave and tireless struggle by human beings, not principles, laws, or theories.

All great acheivements are human, and science is just our tool.
