General Lab Information

We invite all Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) employees, guests, users, and visitors—and their children—to share inspiring images that capture the spirit of Earth Day (instructions below). This year we are conducting four exciting contests! The winners will be selected by a Lab-wide online vote. The top three vote-getters win prizes! Participants may submit one photo each for the general contest and for the "When Nature Takes Over" theme. However, only one prize per participant will be awarded. If a participant wins in both categories, we will contact the participant to see which they prefer.

Congratulations to the winners of the 2023 Earth Day Photo Contest
