The radiation environment to be found inside spacecraft, either in free space or earth-orbiting, is reviewed. The three main components of natural space radiation - galactic, solar, and trapped - are presented with a brief description of the important physical characteristics of each. The greatest known hazard to space travellers will come from rare large solar-particle events.
