Abstract
This paper documents radiation effects observed in selected spacecraft at the system and subsystem levels, and where possible, relates them to predicted radiation effects in parts. Comparisons are also made as functions of design paradigm, assurance philosophy, and the vintage and complexity of the parts and the system.
