Default Re: OT: Ceres more interesting than previously thought

UV, X-ray, and gamma rays mostly. stray neutrons could be a problem for deep space/interstellar, possibly. Keep in mind I only found one source for those numbers using google. It is possible there are high level gamma rays not blocked by it. I have heard that some could pass right through the earth, so I'm sure it would only block them to a certain point. I believ in the context of the page refered more to background gamma rays. I'm looking into it further
