I really don&#x27;t think that&#x27;s an accurate characterisation. Space launch isn&#x27;t a zero-sum game, and SpaceX and ULA aren&#x27;t sports teams. You don&#x27;t have to cheer for one at the expense of the other. After all we&#x27;re all just humans stuck on a rather small planet, painting ULA in any sense as the &quot;bad guys&quot; is extremely silly given a little perspective. If SpaceX pushed ULA entirely out of the commercial launch market it would produce yet another monopoly, and while Elon&#x27;s motivations are primarily for the betterment of humanity healthy competition is much preferable.<p>I, for one, am quite excited about ULA&#x27;s planned Vulcan rocket [0] which incorporates reusability of the engine section, and hope it will be a success. I&#x27;m sure you will find that the most active members of &#x2F;r&#x2F;spacex feel much the same way.<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Vulcan_%28rocket%29" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Vulcan_%28rocket%29</a>
