Great post, Wrabbit! Those radiation belts, is one of those the Van Allen belt? I think that's the one everyone is always talking about?

Back in 1958, at the dawn of the space age, physicist James Van Allen discovered that the Earth is ringed by high-energy charged particles. Held in place by the planet’s magnetic field, these bands of radiation were named the inner and outer Van Allen Belts. They’re of particular interest to NASA as they pose a potential danger to spacecraft.
