In summary, the conversation discussed the loss of valuable information about a company that builds affordable communication/internet satellites. The satellite was lightweight and cost either about 2 million or 12 million dollars, or somewhere in between, possibly around 200,000 US dollars. The individual is seeking help in identifying this particular satellite based on these limited details. However, given the vague information provided, it is difficult to pinpoint the specific satellite among the approximately 50 companies listed on Wikipedia that manufacture satellites.

I have lost some very valuable information about a company which was building economical/affordable communication/internet satellites. They were light weight, but this was not a small satellite. The price was either about 2 million or 12 million, or somewhere between. It could have been 200 000 US dollars. I'm not sure. But please, help me find any information about this specific satellite based on those facts. A satellite manufacturer, a private satellite, communication satellite, light weight, a few million dollars.

This is hopelessly vague. You're going to need to do better than "The price was either about 2 million or 12 million, or somewhere between. It could have been 200 000 US dollars" if you want someone to identify this.
