The DAMPE satellite has been successfully launched in orbit on December 2015. The science goals of the mission include the study of high energy cosmic ray electrons, photons, protons and nuclei in a wide energy range: 109 − 1014 eV. A report on the mission status will be presented, together with on-orbit detector performance and first data coming from space.
