Geography Awareness Week 2011 will feature a daily satellite imagery quiz challenging readers to identify the geographic location of a GeoEye satellite image. In order to participate, fans of National Geographic Education have 24 hours after each post is published to guess the location of the satellite image and and e-mail their answer to NatGeoEd@ngs.org (Submissions must include the following to be entered to win: "GeoEye Quiz" in the subject line, first and last name, complete mailing address, and the correct answer in the body of the email). Daily images and clues will be shared via Facebook, Twitter, and the My Wonderful World blog Monday through Friday of Geography Awareness Week. All correct submissions for each day will be entered into a drawing for a prize, and one winner will be selected at random each day. Readers will have five chances to win an amazing prize valued at $79.95!
