Props to Elon and SpaceX for lighting a fire under an entire industry; I don’t think there’d be much work in reusable rockets without their work. As I understand it the industry wrote them off. But SpaceX proved it was doable or at least made it sexy. Same with electric cars. For whatever reason the Tesla marque was so strong and the cars marketed so well and were decent enough it gave all the incumbents the gumption to make even larger more bet-the-company investments in EVs. Say what you will about Elon as a person and his running of Twitter (horrible) but he sure knows how to be a marketer and to stick-to-his-guns.
