Axios hires Mashable’s Kramer for space newsletter

Miriam Kramer has been hired by Axios as its space reporter and author of the new Axios Space Newsletter, launching on April 9.

Kramer will cover the innovations and advancements in the science, technology, business and politics of space. Like Axios’ Space Deep Dive, her newsletter will cover the science and business of space, from the latest industry news to the wonders of the Universe.

She has worked on the space beat for the past six years, but she has been a self-described “space nerd” for as long as she can remember.

Before joining Axios, Kramer was Mashable’s science editor and space reporter. She also worked as a reporter at Space.com after receiving her master’s degree in science, health and environmental reporting from New York University in 2012.

Kramer has taken a ride in weightlessness on a zero-gravity flight and watched rockets launch into space from places around the United States.
