The Save Enterprise campaign.
A friend sent me an email about their progress.

Don't know if you've seen this or not, but there's a group working to
keep Enterprise on the air. So far, they have $3,073,610.00 in
donations (good crap!), so they might be making a decent go at it...

Three million of it comes from 'anonymous donors in the commercial
spaceflight industry'... probably the people involved in SpaceShipOne.

Interesting stuff!

Who knows.

3. I think it's 1 or 2 million
From what I understand the goals of the group were to raise over 30 million in order to underwrite an entire season. Not gonna happen.

4. Supposedly, there are rumblings that SpikeTV might pick up Enterprise
I've read that the cost of a season is approx 33 million but I'm not at all certain this is accurate.
