Summary

Abstract: The Combined Release and Radiation Effects Satellite (CRRES) was launched into
a geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO) for a nominal three-year mission to
investigate fields, plasmas, and energetic particles inside the Earth's
magnetosphere. As part of the CRRES program the SPACERAD (Space Radiation
Effects) project, managed by Air Force Geophysics Laboratory, investigated the
radiation environment ...
