Nature, extent, and possible prevention of radiation damage discussed. Report summarizes likely effects of high-energy radiation in outer space on variety of commercially-available dielectric materials used in spacecraft. Effects reported on basis of recent Galileo tests, unpublished tests involving proton or electron irradiation, and published information. In general, organic materials with carbon or inorganic fillers most resistant to radiation.
