Good morning, Melbourne.

The Brevard Humane Society will host its 14th Annual Tuxes & Tails Greatest Show Gala on August 23 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Radisson Resort at the Port in Cape Canaveral—an event to raise funds for animal rescue and care presented by Subaru of Melbourne.

Today, ULA will launch an Atlas V rocket carrying Amazon’s second batch of Project Kuiper satellites from Cape Canaveral at 1:25 p.m.—the rocket uses five solid boosters and will ascend along a northeasterly path—and Brevard County residents should not hear sonic booms.

Forecasts call for scattered clouds, isolated showers and good visibility with a 75% chance for go weather.

The Federal Trade Commission warns pet owners that scammers posing as animal shelter staff (claiming a pet was hit by a car) are asking for payment (of $500) immediately, so people should verify any such calls with their local shelter.

Tax data from the Space Coast Office of Tourism showed that hotel and cruise numbers rose in spring and helped boost earnings, with collections up by 10.5% in April and combined March–April figures up 3.3%.

The boost means local shops, restaurants and beaches are expected to be busy this summer — and Port Canaveral will soon debut a huge new cruise ship.

Space Coast kids younger than 18 can get free breakfast and lunch at Summer BreakSpot sites across Brevard — children do not need to attend camp but must arrive during meal service times.

Nemo the green sea turtle was released back into the ocean at Pelican Beach Park in Satellite Beach after spending four months at the Sea Turtle Healing Center recovering from leeches and fibropapillomatosis tumors — the center treated him with fluid therapy, vitamins and antibiotics before the release.
