The repairs to the AMS were apparently successful, which is great news for AMS and the HEP community (https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2020/01/nasa-esa-challenging-ams-repair-spacewalks/). The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer is the best idea in HEP that hasn't yet produced an important discovery. I have only heard about their measurements of the positron fraction and searches for anti-matter, but I think they are most promising for a "Who ordered that?" type discovery.
