She enjoyed seeing snippets of Sunil’s life – flashes of him going out with friends, cooking, working out. “I decided I wanted to book a trip to come to India and meet my friend,” she recalls. Amanda didn’t reply right away. There were more than a few raised eyebrows — many of her loved ones worried things had moved too quickly, that Amanda didn’t really know Sunil. “The pandemic was really, really bad here.”Amid this fear and uncertainty, Amanda and Sunil hunkered down with each other and their dog.

BENGALURU, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Eutelsat (ETL.PA) subsidiary Eutelsat OneWeb said on Tuesday it had won approval from India's space regulator to launch commercial satellite broadband services in the country. Prime Minister Modi's government, which is heading for elections next year, is pushing the development of India's space industry. Investors poured $119 million into Indian space startups in 2022, up from a total of just $38 million in all the years up to 2017. In March, OneWeb partnered with Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) to launch 36 satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper (AMZN.O) has also been in talks with regulators to offer satellite broadband services in India, the Economic Times newspaper reported last month.
