3 First Place, Photography: "Save Our Earth, Let’s Go Green"
Image courtesy Sung Hoon Kang, Boaz Pokroy, and Joanna Aizenberg, Harvard University Fibers cradle a planet-like ball in an award-winning image meant to convey that Earth's future is in our collective hands. Harvard University's Sung Hoon Kang submerged tiny plastic fibers—each only 1/500 as big as a human hair—in an evaporating liquid, where they spontaneously and cooperatively supported the small green ball. "Using the image, I tried to describe cooperative efforts across the world to save our Earth by going green," Hoon said. The shot was selected as best photograph in the 2009 International Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge.

4 Honorable Mention, Illustration: "Jellyfish Burger"
Image courtesy Dave Beck and Jennifer Jacquet, Clarkson University Want fries with that? This 3-D digital-composite picture provides a stomach-turning look at the future of overfished oceans by hitting people where they feel it most: in their guts. "Unfortunately the primary way we relate to the oceans is through the appetite," said marine scientist Jennifer Jacquet of the University of British Columbia, who with Clarkson University digital artist Dave Beck created the image honored in the 2009 International Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge. Clarkson noted that warmer oceans may swarm with jellyfish—which can thrive in warm waters—even as the seas are emptied of other species. (Related: "'Immortal' Jellyfish Swarm World's Oceans.") "We wanted the jellyfish burger to look absurd but also possible," she added. "Because with overfishing and ocean warming, the jellyfish burger is becoming a reality."

5 Each white dot represents an individual piece of tracked orbital debris. This image shows the Low Earth Orbit, which is the region from the Earth’s surface to 1,240 miles and contains the most space junk. Together, all the space junk would weigh about 11 million pounds on Earth, or more than 3,000 cars.
