Abstract: The Galileo space probe experienced several computer problems after being hit by an unexpected burst radiation near the Jovian moon Callisto on Aug 12, 1999, but loss of data was minimized by software that automatically restarts command sequences. Galileo's star scanner picked up 1400 background counts of radiation in a 6-hour period. Engineers had expected no more than 400 background counts. Galileo's avionics were build to withstand 300 kilorads of accumulated radiation, and it has received over 276 kilorads so far.
