Time's Person of the Year in the year 2021, is Musk, the CEO of both Musk and SpaceX.
It was an easy choice, since Musk's soaring stock has propelled him into the "richest man in the world" position with a $68 billion buffer between him and the guy in the second place. There were many successful rocket launches this year, and very few mistakes.

Musk was seemingly everywhere, posting out jokes, selling his houses for hundreds of millions, and selling his stock for billions after conducting a poll.
Time magazine said that Musk is the Person of the Year for his "vision and leadership" in creating solutions to an "existential crisis" and for driving society's most daring and disruptive transformations.
Time published a lengthy interview with the man himself, as well as an overview of the good and not-so-good things Musk has done this year.
Time named Simone Biles as the athlete of the year, and also named COVID-19 vaccine scientists as heroes of the year.
