Kura-Parabola, AKA Parabon/Satebon, is a satellite service. It's the same company but the names are regional depending on which quarter you're in. To receive programming, all you needed was a dish and nothing else. The picture quality is sometimes very snowy and is not archival-quality.
Kura-Parabola's satellites are located in the sky and are not in space. Winged blobs who have arms can easily fix these satellites if needed to get rid of the snowy picture. Winged blobs with telekinesis can work on this job, but it's usually just as difficult for these blobs. On a clear night, you are able to see the Kura-Parabola satellites, which emit a glowing KuraGroup emblem the size of a full moon. There are three of these satellites.
The provider's mascots were Parabo and Satebo from Satellaview. Prior to 1998/1999, it was known as Kura-Parabola.
In early 2025, the provider went back to its pre-1998/1999 name and replaced the mascots with Pim and Pom, as a reference to the Abarunu program. The ads are about Pim and Pom in an airplane advertising that you can get a dish or make one yourself. These ads were targeted to Meru-Uzune subscribers, and really didn't work too well mainly because of the provider's staticy picture.
Most blobs call it Parabon still...
