Model calculations of Jupiter's electron and proton radiation belts indicate that the Galilean satellites can reduce particle fluxes in certain regions of the inner magnetosphere by as much as six orders of magnitude. Average fluxes should be reduced by a factor of 100 or more along the Pioneer 10 trajectory through the heart of Jupiter's radiation belts in early December. This may be enough to prevent serious radiation damage to the spacecraft.
对木星电子和质子辐射带的模型计算表明，伽利略卫星可使内磁层某些区域的粒子通量降低多达六个数量级。12月初，沿着先驱者10号穿越木星辐射带中心的轨迹，平均通量应会降低100倍或更多。这或许足以防止航天器受到严重的辐射损害。
