The AMS experiment is a magnetic spectrometer designed and constructed to measure particles in space. For its first flight, the detector used a permanent magnet together with a precision silicon tracking detector, time-of-flight counters and aerogel counters. The first 10-day flight of AMS took place on June 2, 1998 on board the NASA Space Shuttle Discovery. The construction of the AMS detector, the first results of the shuttle flight and the future plans of AMS will be presented..
