In Search of Antimatter Galaxies - NASA
"An act of Congress in 2008 added another flight to the schedule near the end of the program.
Currently scheduled for 2010, this extra flight of the shuttle is going to launch a hunt for antimatter galaxies.
The device that does the actual hunting is called the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer--or AMS for short. It's a $1.5 billion cosmic ray detector that the shuttle will deliver to the ISS."

Q&A: Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer | BBC NEWS
Samuel Ting: So my main job at this moment is to make sure the final phase of the assembly of the detector that nothing goes wrong. The other things are in the hand of God or the hand of Congress.
Samuel Ting, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist from the MIT, is the driving force behind a particle detector that is designed to operate on the ISS.
The US space agency (Nasa) is still awaiting funding to fly the mission, which was cut from the space shuttles' manifest following the 2003 Columbia accident and the decision to retire the fleet in 2010 once the station was finished.
Professor Ting spoke with reporter Irene Klotz from Geneva, where he is overseeing the final checkout of the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer at Cern."

"Samuel Ting: Yeah. We know antimatter doesn't exist in our galaxy, because if it existed it would collide with matter and would produce sharp X-rays. The fact that we don't see these sharp X-rays means it doesn't exist in our galaxy.
But the Universe has 100 million galaxies, so you really need to do a very sensitive, very careful search for this."

On July 15, 1975, an Apollo spacecraft launched from the Kennedy Space Center with astronauts Tom Stafford, Vance Brand and Deke Slayton.
Two days later, their capsule docked with a Soyuz spacecraft carrying two cosomonauts, Valeriy Kubasov and Alexei Leonov. Over a nine-day period, the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project assessed the compatibility of rendezvous and docking systems of the American and Soviet spacecraft. ASTP paved the way for the future joint US-Russian space ventures Shuttle-Mir and today’s International Space Station. ASTP was the last Apollo mission and the last manned U.S. space mission until the first shuttle flight in April, 1981.

The Apollo-Soyuz Test Project July 15 - 24, 1975
On July 15, 1975, an Apollo spacecraft launched from the Kennedy Space Center with astronauts Tom Stafford, Vance Brand and Deke Slayton.
Two days later, their capsule docked with a Soyuz spacecraft carrying two cosomonauts, Valeriy Kubasov and Alexei Leonov. Over a nine-day period, the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project assessed the compatibility of rendezvous and docking systems of the American and Soviet spacecraft. ASTP paved the way for the future joint US-Russian space ventures Shuttle-Mir and today’s International Space Station. ASTP was the last Apollo mission and the last manned U.S. space mission until the first shuttle flight in April, 1981.

The Apollo-Soyuz Test Project July 15 - 24, 1975
On July 15, 1975, an Apollo spacecraft launched from the Kennedy Space Center with astronauts Tom Stafford, Vance Brand and Deke Slayton.
Two days later, their capsule docked with a Soyuz spacecraft carrying two cosomonauts, Valeriy Kubasov and Alexei Leonov. Over a nine-day period, the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project assessed the compatibility of rendezvous and docking systems of the American and Soviet spacecraft. ASTP paved the way for the future joint US-Russian space ventures Shuttle-Mir and today’s International Space Station. ASTP was the last Apollo mission and the last manned U.S. space mission until the first shuttle flight in April, 1981.

As a unique state-of-the-art particle physics detector, the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) will search for signs of antimatter and dark matter in Space.
The AMS detector is being transported from CERN to Geneva International Airport in preparation for its planned departure from Switzerland on 26 August, when it will be flown to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on board a US Air Force Galaxy transport aircraft.

Keeping antihydrogen: the ALPHA trap - CERN Courier
"Jeffrey Hangst describes how ALPHA, an experiment attempting to trap antihydrogen at CERN, overcomes some of the difficulties and he questions the reality of ever making more than the tiniest amounts of antimatter."

Antimatter Atoms Successfully Stored for the First Time « Berkeley Lab News Center
In a forthcoming issue of Nature now online, the ALPHA team reports the results of 335 experimental trials, each lasting one second, during which the anti-atoms were created and stored. The trials were repeated at intervals never shorter than 15 minutes.
