A journey through space and time to explore cosmic rays, messengers of extremely high energy coming from the universe. We will begin on the Earth’s surface, where the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina investigates the most energetic particles ever observed, and then move into space with the DAMPE satellite mission, which explores the spectrum of cosmic rays and their possible connection with dark matter. Finally, we will look to the future with NUSES, the Italian satellite dedicated to the study of cosmic radiation and its potential links with space weather. A path that brings together major observatories on the ground and in space, showing how international research jointly addresses the challenges of one of the most fascinating frontiers of modern physics.
