- Abstract
Estimates of doses inside the spacecraft were carried out for flights to the Moon using low-thrust engines. The characteristics of the trajectory, which is significantly different from the Hohmann trajectory, are taken into account. Such a trajectory causes a long stay inside the radiation belts, which can cause disruptions in the operation of onboard equipment. It turned out that, during long-term transportation of food products, they may be damaged under the influence of radiation. This is extremely important in the case of the creation of habitable stations on the Moon surface or near-Moon orbit. The presented results can be used in the preparation of future space experiments.
