Antarctic Infrastructure Modernization for Science project will overhaul McMurdo Station over the course of a decade. The National Science Board (NSB) has authorized the National Science Foundation (NSF) to move forward with the Antarctic Infrastructure Modernization for Science (AIMS) project. AIMS is planned as a 10-year undertaking to overhaul McMurdo Station into an energy- and operationally efficient platform from which to support world-class science.

Through its Office of Polar Programs (OPP), NSF manages the U.S. Antarctic Program, which funds and facilitates the nation's scientific endeavors on the southernmost continent and the waters around it. Read more information on NSF's press statement: https://www.nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?preview=y&cntn_id=297843.
