Abstract
This paper describes the factors of outer space that affect the noise immunity of devices for celestial orientation. Theoretical and experim ental estimates have been made of the output characteristics of optoel ectronic devices installed on the Fobos spacecraft. This analysis show s that the false pulses observed in flight in the channel of the optoe lectronic devices can be caused by the action of high-energy particles of galactic cosmic radiation.
