A covariant formulation of the outgoing radiation condition for gravitational fields is proposed. The condition is based on a detailed examination of the geometry of null lines and of the algebraic and differential properties of the Riemann tensor. It relates the absence of incoming radiation, in a gravitational field with bounded sources and Euclidean topology, to the asymptotic behaviour of the Riemann tensor. Fields that are algebraically special in the Petrov classification are highly special examples of fields obeying the suggested condition.
