Navigation Radiation Shielding

Navigation Radiation Shielding is a space design control that reduces exposure from charged particles and solar events for position, timing, and trajectory services. It uses material selection, safe modes, and exposure modeling so teams can protect electronics and crews from known hazards while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The mission team used Navigation Radiation Shielding when the navigation solution was updated, so the team could protect electronics and crews from known hazards before the next mission decision point.”
