 p>In May 2011 the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) was installed on the I
 nternational Space Station (ISS). AMS is a complex particle detector desig
 ned to precisely measure the fluxes of cosmic rays between 0.5 GeV and a f
 ew TeV. The physics goals of the experiment include the search for possibl
 e signals of dark matter annihilation and hints for primordial antimatter 
 in the fluxes of cosmic rays.<br /> <br /> To date AMS has collected more 
 than 100 billion events\, consisting of protons and nuclei\, few electrons
  and traces of antimatter. The precision of the measurements reveals many 
 unexpected features\, some of which challenge our current understanding of
  cosmic ray acceleration and galactic transport. For instance\, the observ
 ed increase in the flux of energetic positrons could be explained by dark 
 matter annihilation\, as well as new astrophysical sources.<br /> <br /> T
 his talk provides an overview over some of the most exiting and often surp
 rising results from the first 7 years of AMS data dating on ISS. I will br
 iefly discuss their impact on our understanding of the origin and transpor
 t of galactic cosmic rays.</p>
