Coal India stock hits 52-week high after opening coal e-auctions to Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan

BENGALURU, January 2, 2026, 08:04 ET Coal India opened its online coal auctions to buyers from Bangladesh, Bhutan and Nepal on Friday, letting companies across the border bid directly for its coal. The state-run miner’s shares jumped to a 52-week high. The change comes as demand from Indian power producers has softened, with coal-based generation down in seven of the past 12 months as renewable capacity expanded. Coal India’s supplies to consumers fell 2.2% in the April-to-December period from a year earlier, the company said. “This move should help Coal India boost margins,” said Rupesh Sankhe, a research analyst at

When the Grid Goes Dark: How Satellite Phones Keep Us Connected in Emergencies

Iridium operates 66 active LEO satellites in a cross-linked constellation, providing truly global coverage including the poles. Inmarsat uses 3–4 GEO satellites at about 36,000 km altitude to cover most of the globe from roughly 70°N to 70°S, and its IsatPhone 2 offers 8 hours of talk time. Globalstar runs about 48 LEO satellites to provide regional coverage (roughly 50°N to 50°S) with the Globalstar GSP-1700 handset. Thuraya uses two GEO satellites, with Thuraya 4-NGS launched in 2025 to expand service across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Australia, while it does not cover the Americas.

Sky-Fi Revolution: How Starlink Is Reshaping Global Internet Access

Sky-Fi Revolution: How Starlink Is Reshaping Global Internet Access

Starlink is a SpaceX satellite internet constellation that began launching in 2019 to deliver broadband virtually anywhere on Earth. As of late 2024, SpaceX had launched over 7,000 Starlink satellites, with FCC authorization for about 12,000 and potential expansion beyond 30,000 in the future. Starlink satellites orbit at approximately 550 km altitude in multiple orbital shells, enabling lower latency than geostationary satellites. SpaceX reached 1 million Starlink subscribers by the end of 2022 and 4 million by September 2024. Each Starlink satellite is equipped with phased-array antennas, and some models include inter-satellite laser links for in-space data routing. The network

Inside OneWeb’s Global Internet Play: How This Satellite Network Is Quietly Disrupting Starlink’s Orbit

OneWeb’s first-generation constellation comprises 648 LEO satellites at about 1,200 km altitude, each ~150 kg, using Ku-band for user links and Ka-band for gateways, with 16 spot beams and no inter-satellite laser links, delivering up to 7.2 Gbps per satellite. By late 2021, OneWeb achieved partial service in high-latitude regions, focusing on the Arctic, Northern Europe, Greenland, and Alaska. On March 25, 2023, the first-generation constellation reached 614 operational satellites, exceeding the minimum ~588 satellites required for global coverage, with 648 planned total. In September 2023, OneWeb merged with France’s Eutelsat to form Eutelsat OneWeb, making Eutelsat the 100% owner

Rewolucja Sky-Fi: Jak Starlink zmienia globalny dostęp do Internetu

Do końca 2024 SpaceX wystrzelił ponad 7,000 satelitów Starlink, z planami na około 12,000+ i potencjalnym rozszerzeniem do 30,000+. Do początku 2025 usługa Starlink była dostępna w ponad 100 krajach i terytoriach, obejmując praktycznie wszystkie kontynenty. Satelity Starlink tworzą konstelację LEO na wysokości około 550 km w kilku powłokach orbitalnych, co umożliwia pokrycie oceanów i regionów polarnych. Średnia latencja użytkowników Starlink wynosi około 20–40 ms, a prędkość pobierania zwykle mieści się w 50–150 Mbps, z szczytami do około 200 Mbps. Terminal użytkownika, potocznie nazywany „Dishy McFlatface”, to 0,6 m talerz z fazowaną matrycą, który automatycznie śledzi satelity i nie wymaga
