Infrared emission from a planet at a very small angular separation from its star offers the possibility for detection by interferometry from space. However, it has been suggested that attention should be paid to interference produced by the infrared radiation that would be generated within the space package by cosmic ray protons. Quantitative examination reveals that both the primary Čerenkov flux and the secondary infrared emission from Čerenkov heating are negligible.
