High latitude Antarctic Incoherent Scatter Radar will help to achieve the better distributed network of sophisticated observational platforms needed in to gain transformational new knowledge of the short and long term global variability of Earth’s upper atmosphere and its connection to the solar wind and space. It will facilitate moving toward a fully system level approach to upper atmosphere and space research. SRI has recently proposed to establish multiple space science observing facilities in the Antarctic, first at McMurdo, Antarctica, and later at an auroral or sub-auroral location. The facilities will be built around the well-proven, next-generation, Advanced Modular Incoherent Scatter Radar (AMISR) concept, and will each provide unprecedented temporal and spatial coverage of the Antarctic atmosphere. These will be the first ever ISRs in the high south, and a very important addition to the global network of observational platforms needed to address the global state and development of Earth’s upper atmosphere and its connection to interplanetary space. This poster provides an update on the progress of the project, including a construction timeline and details of how the community can become involved in the observational program.
