2002 Dive In To Earth Day Photo Contest Winners

2002.06.05 . .

Congratulations to the winners of the First Annual Dive In To Earth Day Photo Contest! There were so many wonderful photographs to choose from, but we feel that the following images best capture the spirt of Dive In: a fun, community activity that takes action to protect our marine environment. Winners were chosen from two categories: Above Water and Underwater. A picture named uwmonopoly.jpg

A picture named rovercameraclear.jpgThe $60 Desktop Rover is a tiny tank, about the size of your palm, an inch-and-a-half in height, and slightly heavy. On each side of it are four wheels and a horizontal guide, with rubber treads running round them. One of the wheels on each side is a gear, to drive the tread; each gear is driven by a small electric motor. Each motor is either going forwards, going backwards, or stopped, and you steer by combining these: if both motors are going forwards, the Rover goes forwards; if one motor is going forwards and the other is stopped or going backwards, the Rover turns; and so forth.
