Space Coast Daily was founded in 2012 by Tom Palermo, a veteran journalist and media entrepreneur. Palermo recognized the need for a comprehensive local news source that could serve the unique community of Florida's Space Coast, an area closely tied to the aerospace industry and NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The idea was to create a digital platform that would provide timely and relevant news to residents and visitors of Brevard County. Today, Space Coast Daily continues to be owned and operated by Palermo and his team. Based in Brevard County, Florida, Space Coast Daily covers a wide range of local news topics including space and technology, politics, sports, entertainment, and community events. The website provides extensive coverage of rocket launches from Cape Canaveral, local government affairs, high school and college sports, and cultural happenings in the area. Space Coast Daily also features weather updates, which are particularly important in this coastal region prone to tropical storms and hurricanes. One interesting fact: Space Coast Daily has a unique “Space Coast Medicine & Active Living“ section that focuses on health, wellness, and lifestyle topics specific to the Space Coast community. This section often features local medical professionals and highlights the intersection of space technology and healthcare advancements, reflecting the area's unique blend of aerospace innovation and community well-being.
