The Albert P. Crary Science and Engineering Center ("Crary Lab") is a National Science Foundation research laboratory consisting of five "pods": a two-story core, a biology pod, earth sciences and atmospheric sciences pods, and an aquarium, all connected by an enclosed sloping passageway. Built in three phases between 1987 and 1993, the laboratory was named in honor of a polar geophysicist and glaciologist who was the first person to set foot on both the North and South Poles.
