The radiation environment is of special concern when the spaceship flies in deep space. The annual fluence of the galactic cosmic rays is approximately 108/sq cm and the absorbed dose of the solar cosmic rays can reach 10 Gy per event behind the shielding thickness of 3-5 g/sq cm Al. For the radiation environment monitoring it is planned to place a measuring complex on the space probes 'Mars' and 'Spectr' flying outside the magnetosphere. This complex is to measure: cosmic rays composition, particle flux, dose equivalent, energy and Linear Energy Transfer (LET) spectra, solar X-rays spectrum. On line data transmission by the space probes permits to obtain the radiation environment data in space.
