I wonder...
By starbaseops

...if Richard Branson was one of these "anonymous donors". I watched his show, Rebel Billionaire, and have to say that he is one very unique person. I like his take on integrity as the factor above all that drove his decision making. Too bad Trump has more weight to throw around because Branson is hands down the better person (at least in my eyes).

From seeing him on his show, I'm willing to bet this would be the kind of stunt he'd pull. He has a lot riding on commercial space flight. Not just money, but his dreams of every day people having space travel accessible to them. The cancellation of a show/franchise that has meant so much to the world and inspired many of the engineers and astronauts that have brought this within our grasp is horrible. Like the donor stated, if the ratings were all that mattered, Trek would have died back in 1968 as would most TV sci-fi, and who knows who would have failed to get off the couch and make a difference.
