WASHINTON, Oct. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — NASA will provide live coverage of prelaunch and launch activities for Europa Clipper, the agency’s mission to explore Jupiter’s icy moon Europa. NASA now is targeting launch no earlier than 12:06 p.m. EDT, Monday, Oct. 14, on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Beyond Earth, Jupiter’s moon Europa is considered one of the solar system’s most promising potentially habitable environments. After an approximately 1.8-billion-mile journey, Europa Clipper will enter orbit around Jupiter in April 2030, where the spacecraft will conduct a detailed survey of Europa to determine whether the icy world could have conditions suitable for life. Europa Clipper is the largest spacecraft NASA has ever developed for a planetary mission. It carries a suite of nine instruments along with a gravity experiment that will investigate an ocean beneath Europa’s surface, which scientists believe contains twice as much liquid water as Earth’s oceans.

Small Business start-up loses everything after Two Hurricanes

CLEARWATER, Fla., Oct. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Flood waters in the aftermath of hurricane Helene left significant property and equipment losses for Joseph Camerieri and his home and business. Only recently did those waters recede to where cleanup can occur.

“I’m not a quitter,” said Camerieri in a brief video; “I don’t quit.. everybody knows that.

Zeppole LLC, Camerieri’s home-based business, suffered a significant loss when the primary equipment he used to produce a variety of products was severely damaged by water. Cleanup is under way to salvage as much of the equipment as possible. Some items will be hard to replace as Joseph built up his baking kitchen and production tools over time.

The owner is seeking the public’s help by publicizing a link on GoFundMe to serve as a conduit for willing participants to help out. That site can be found at: https://gofund.me/065c9b86

Camerieri started his bakery in 2022 after inspiration from his mother, Gaetana “Chickie

Camerieri, who was born and grew up in Brooklyn, New York. In 1976, Gaetana moved to Florida along with her husband and three children. Years later, as a member of the newly-formed Italian women’s group, she was largely responsible for starting the Italian Feast of San Gennaro in Safety Harbor, an event that grew to 15,000 attendees coming together over a three-day weekend.

All of the money accepted through GoFundMe will help Joseph Camerieri restart his business and be able to afford vital equipment. He looks to resume production of his product as soon as possible. Working two jobs one as utility for Fox Sports CBS, 15 years, for all home games he had to miss the most recent home game in Tampa in which Superbowl Tom Brady was Fox sports analyst announcer. He is a member of IBEW UNION 1200 OF Tampa, Florida

“I’m not a quitter,” said Camerieri in a brief video; “I don’t quit.. everybody knows that. I may take a shot in the face and get held up for a day or two, but I will rebuild.” On the evacuation orders he got to save a dog named Suzy at his mobile home complex, My neighbor’s roommate had to leave the dog.

Joseph’s original Zeppole recipe has been served to over 500,000 people and is available exclusively online. With its heralded flavor and acclaimed sugar coating, the product has gained popularity steadily for over 10 years. This demand has kept Camerieri determined to keep the business going.

“I’m hearing how people want me to rebuild and keep the bakery functioning. I’m going to do everything in my power to satisfy their desire and keep this business going, as strong as ever,” stated Camerieri. “I just need people’s help and God’s help, and we can do this!”
