The Indian space agency can become more commercially available in the future.
And SpaceX is not acknowledged to be the lowest cost because they objectively aren't.
But in any case I gave credit for landing boosters already.
But what is the impact of SpaceX on our lives? Nothing of note.
NASA's missions were pioneering.
SpaceX is just a commercial company providing space launch capabilities at competitive cost that other agencies like the Indian space agencies are already doing.
EVs are not transformative in any real sense.
Much of the EV development you are seeing today is a response to climate change initiatives and natural market transition.
Even so Ford announced they are pivoting away from EVs.
And when it comes to Starlink again, no. They have not transformed lives.
They provide services to parts of the world that already have internet for the most part.
There are many satellite internet providers in these parts of the world.
Just like Tesla, Elon's accomplishments are overstated.
He is not a transformational leader.
He is a successful businessman who relies on his cons to create these bloated expectations that he then leverages to sell his less than stellar products.
Google says Spacex has since under cut India and their cost of $1200 a lb to LEO is the lowst. SpaceX platform and its main mission is to enable the colonization of Mars. EVs are massively transfromaive in that they significantly reduce urban pollution and increase efficiency by orders of magnitude over ICE cars. Yes Starlink has trannsformed lives for people in rurial areas and made high speed internet available at a reasonable cost almost anywhere. If he can pull off self driving that wil be another giant leap.

Also worth mentioning that there is a lot of skepticism about the future of EVs in the industry with battery life, charging, and lifecycle a significant concern, even beyond the economics of the infrastructure and the the premium for EVs.

I don't like Musk but he did bring EVs back to the forefront and changed the perception from little, uncomfortable vehicles for hippie types into a luxury(ish) status symbol.
thats all old news. EVs will likly out last gas powered cars. There are many Teslas with very high miles out there still running ust fine. The premium for EVs is very low now and shrinking. Used EVs are super cheap.

Cost per Kg or Lb is misleading as it also depends on the payload capacity of the vehicle.
A better measure is to compare cost per launch.
SpaceX's cost is twice that of India.
Many factors go into determining why this is.
Labour, fuel, overall weight and so on.
EVs can be massively transformative. But they are not. This is reality.
He has been touting self driving for the last 6 years without results. Part of the reason why he is a con.
Starlink has not been "massively transformative" in any significant way. Show some examples.
It is basically available in places where internet is already available.
They are also not the only players.
Basically you are giving example of successful businesses.
Not transformative ones.

PPs not said anything of substance, just a complainer in chief.
Justin has given him and all Canadians lost to complain about
Pierre P has lots to say of substance but most can be summed with " I am not Justin Trudeau'

That said Trudeau can't seem to stop scoring own goals.
of course he can't, he is a moron

Its kinda funny and sad that he made such a point of putting women in positions of power only to get backstabbed by them.
you are oblivious to the fact of who is holding the knife when talking about liberal back stabbing

Trudeau made such a point of putting women in positions of power, for political gain and for no other reason
Then he stabbed them in the back when they tried to be responsible and pushed back on him

he is a repeat offender over multiple years
Justin Trudeau is the problem

and here you are still trying to shift blame from him

And how have his accomplishments changed life as we know it?
They haven't and that is a factually correct statement.
Have we always been able to buy reliable EV's?
Have we always been able to re-use and land rockets?

Your claim about "changed life" is subjective.
It means different things to different people.
It's a desperate attempt to discredit his accomplishments.
Your comparisons to Gates and Jobs failed miserably.
