Melbourne is a city in Brevard County in the state of Florida. It is located along the stretch of Atlantic coastline known as the Space Coast about 70 miles southeast of Orlando and 90 miles south of Daytona Beach. Melbourne is the principal city of the Palm Bay – Melbourne – Titusville, Florida Metropolitan Statistical Area and is the second largest municipal area by size and by population in the county.

Melbourne was incorporated in 1888 and named after the village's first postmaster, Cornthwaite John Hector. Hector was an Englishman who had spent much of his life in the Australian city of Melbourne. In 1969 Melbourne and neighbouring settlement Eau Gallie were consolidated into what is now present-day Melbourne.

Today the city is one of the largest population centres on the Space Coast and is home to many high-tech companies such as General Electric, Northrop Grumman, Intersil, Rockwell Collins, Harris Corporation, and Liberty Aerospace. Located less than an hour's drive north on Merritt Island is the Kennedy Space Center and Astronaut Hall of Fame. This is one of Florida’s most popular attraction and features IMAX films simulating space flight and a life-size replica of the Space Shuttle Explorer.
