The ESA gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL, launched on 17 October 2002, continues to produce a wealth of discoveries and new results on compact high energy Galactic objects,nuclear gamma-ray line emission, diffuse line and continuum emission, cosmic background radiation, AGN, high energy transients and sky surveys. Ten years after launch, thespacecraft, ground segment and payload are in excellent state-of-health, and INTEGRAL is continuing its scientific operations well beyond its 5-year technical design lifetime until, at least, 31December 2014.
