    Swift Telescope Rescue Mission Ends in Failure | West Palm Beach News

    NASA’s 20-year-old Swift Observatory is set for a fiery end after a high-stakes rescue mission failed. Katalyst Space Technologies’ spacecraft, Link, suffered critical control issues and went into an uncontrollable spin shortly after launch, thwarting efforts to save the aging telescope that studied gamma rays and exploding stars. Despite investing $30 million, NASA acknowledged the attempt was worth it — even if the goal wasn’t met. The failed mission may now impact future rescue attempts for other aging space assets like Hubble, which also faces orbital decay. Katalyst remains proud of the progress made and plans to repurpose Link for future missions. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    A Lifesaving Moment at Bathtub Beach | West Palm Beach News

    A man drifting hundreds of yards out into the ocean at Bathtub Beach in Stuart, Florida, was pulled from the brink thanks to compassionate crisis intervention by deputies. Called in after a suicide hotline tip, he was emotionally shattered by relationship and family turmoil—telling officers he sought peace in the water until he couldn’t swim anymore. Deputy John Wilkes and Sergeant Nicholas Castoro used their training to build trust, connecting with him on fatherhood and men’s struggles with vulnerability. A pivotal moment came when the man saw the support around him—and reconsidered his decision. He agreed to board the boat, received medical care, and was placed under a Baker Act for further mental health evaluation, all thanks to the human connection that saved his life.

    Former Clerk Accused in Child Abuse Case | West Palm Beach News

    Former Florida state rep Michael Caruso, appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis to clerk of court just last year, is now facing five serious criminal charges—including kidnapping and child abuse—after allegations surfaced of abusing a child. The governor, who signed Florida’s controversial death penalty law for pedophiles, noted Caruso once backed legislation making capital sexual battery a felony under certain conditions—a chilling irony. Caruso’s attorney insists he’s innocent and will fight vigorously, while the victim’s lawyer stands firm on the allegations and the trauma of exposing a child’s identity in their community. Caruso was initially jailed without bond in Palm Beach County but has since been transferred to Orange County, where his bond terms will be set as legal proceedings unfold.
