> Even a man for a while much richer than Elon, Bezos, couldn't muster much in terms of cultural relevance for Blue Origin than a PR stunt with William Shatner.

When/if Blue Origin starts actually launching ships to orbit and then landing them, they'll gain a lot of relevance.

I mean, yeah? If I personally started launching ships to orbit and landing them, I would gain a lot of relevance too.

The point is, somehow SpaceX is able to do things Blue can’t. Combined with Tesla being able to do things other automakers can’t, it seems there’s a common factor.
