Abstract
AGILE is an Italian Space Agency (ASI) mission devoted toγ-ray astrophysics in the 30 MeV- 50 GeV energy range, with simultaneous X-ray imaging capability in the 18-60 keV band.Launched in April 2007, the AGILE satellite has completed its tenth year of operations in orbitwith all detectors operating nominally. The small high-tech jewel, designed for an operative lifeof only two years, continues its mission with high efficiency, and it is substantially contributingto improve our knowledge of the high-energy sky. We present an overview of the main AGILEγ-ray satellite scientific results and discoveries.
