Here's your local news at a glance for Sunday, the 30th of November.
Good morning, Melbourne.
🏘️ Community
Finalists have been named for the 11th annual Stars of Space Coast Awards that honor nonprofits supporting mental health, community services and food security.
Winners will be announced at 11:30 a.m. Friday, Dec. 5 at the Space Coast Health Foundation’s Center for Collaboration on U.S. 1 in Rockledge — the ceremony recognizes essential community support.
💼 Business
Vaya Space and Seagate Space announced on November 19 that they are working together to launch the Dauntless hybrid rocket from a floating Gateway platform in the Gulf of America.
The project will use Florida’s port network to offer more flexible launch dates for small satellites and defense missions — a move that aims to lower costs and improve scheduling — as offshore launches expand the state’s space capabilities.
🎭 Culture
Brevard County is in the spotlight as Grammy-nominated singer Benson Boone performs at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex today at 8 p.m. as part of the Visa Live global music series (opening act is DJ Pee Wee) while fans watch the live stream on TikTok.
