Photo of Ambassador
Craig is a member of JPL's education outreach team whose principle mission is to acquaint the public with NASA's solar system explorations. He is a UCLA graduate and holds advanced degrees from the University of Southern California. He was a faculty member at the University of Redlands until 1998 when he joined JPL.

Since 1998 Craig has spent much of his time sharing some of NASA's most ambitious space exploration, including the Cassini Huygens mission to Saturn and Titan, Galileo, STARDUST, Mars missions, including Mars Odyssey, the two Mars rover missions (MER), and Deep Impact. Craig has worked with scientists and astronomers at Bradbury Science Museum, Los Alamos, NM, and at Lodestar Astronomy Center, Albuquerque, mentoring gifted high school science students in Project Earthwatch. He also represents the Athena Students Intern Program which recruits high school students to work with JPL scientists on the Mars rover program.
